Question

A gardener makes a new circular flower bed. The bed is 14 feet in diameter. Calculate the circumference and the area of the circular flower bed.

Answer 1

circumference = π*14
and area = π*49

Answer 2

Circumference: 43,96 ft

Area: 153,86 ft^2

Explanation:

In order to solve this you just have to insert the values into the formulas, remember to us pi as 3.14:

Circumference:
`\pi *d`

Area:
`\pi *r^2`

Since the diameter is 14 ft the radius will be 7, we insert the values into the formulas:

`circumference=\pi *d\\circumference=3,14*14\\Circumference= 43,96\\Area= \pi *r^2\\Area=3,14(7)^2\\Area= 3,14*49\\Area= 153,86`

So the area of the circular flower bed will be 153,86 ft^2 and the circumference will be 43,96ft
