Answer:

The Area of the bicycle wheel=380.182 square inch

Explanation:

The formula for calculating the area of a wheel is given by;

A=(πd²)/4

A=Area of the wheel to be calculated

Where π (pie)=3.142,

The wheel size is usually denoted by its diameter (d)

d=diameter of the wheel=22 inches

with the values of π and d given, we can plug them in the formula for calculating Area to determine the area of the bicycle wheel

Substituting the values for π and d in the formula;

A=(πd²)/4=(3.142×22²)/4=380.182 in²

The Area of the bicycle wheel=380.182 in²
