Question

Jessie designed a sculpture that is shaped like a circle. The circumference of the sculpture is 10π meters. Which measurement is closest to the area of the sculpture in square meters?

Answer 1

25πm²

Explanation:

Circumference of the circular sculpture = πd

d is the diameter

Given

Circumference = 10π metres

Substitute into the formula

10π = πd

10 = d

d = 10m

Area of the sculpture = πd²/4

area of the sculpture = π(10)²/4

area of the sculpture = 100π/4

area of the sculpture = 25π m²

Hence the measurement closest to the area of the sculpture in square meters is 25πm²
