Answer:
A = 346.185 cm²
Explanation:
The formula given is:
A = πr²
A = Area of the object (circle).
π = 3.14
r = radius, which is 1/2 of the diameter, a straight line from one end to the other.
Set the equation, plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variables:
A = (3.14)(10.5)²
Simplify. Remember to follow PEMDAS.
PEMDAS =
Parenthesis
Exponents (& Roots)
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction
and is the order of operation.
First, solve the exponent.
(10.5)² = 10.5 * 10.5 = 110.25
Next, multiply:
A = (3.14)(110.25)
A = 346.185 cm²
A = 346.185 cm² is your answer.
