Use the equation for finding the area of a circle.
That is
\pi r^(2)
Filling it in:
3.14(4)^2
Exponents first:
4^2 = 16
Then multiply:
3.14 x 16 = 50.24
So the area of the flower bed is about 50.24 feet squared.

Answer: Area of flower bed is 50.24 sq. ft.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Radius of a botanical garden of circle shape = 4 ft

We need to find the area of circle:

As we know the formula for "Area of circle" :


Area=\pi r^2\\\\Area=3.14* 4* 4\\\\Area=50.24\ ft^2

Hence, Area of flower bed is 50.24 sq. ft.
