Function Notation
The area of a circle of radius r can be found with the function:
Which can be written with the code f(r) = pi*r^2
If given Area A, we can use this function to find the radius:
Which can be written as r(A) = sqrt(A/pi)
Part b (apparently) asks for the function notation, not the results:
i) The area of a circle of radius of 2.64 can be found with the function:
f(2.64)=pi*2.64^2
The result is 21.90 (rounding to two decimals)
ii) The radius of a circle whose area is 1370:
r(1370) = sqrt(1370/pi)
The result is 20.88
iii How much larger area has a circle whose radius is 15.2 than a circle whose radius is 15.1:
pi*15.2^2 - pi*15.1^2
The result is 9.52
