The area of a circle is pi*r^2 so 324/pi is 103 if you take the square root of that it is 10.15. so you would use the circumference formula now, which is 2 pi r so 2*pi*10.15= 63.77

Answer:

Circumference of circle is 36π feet.

Explanation:

Given : area of circle is 324π feet²

We have to find the circumference of the given circle.

Consider Area of circle is 324π feet²

We know, Area of circle =
\pi r^2

Thus,
324\pi=\pi r^2

Simplify for r , we have,


324=r^2

Taking square root both side, we have,


r=√(324)=18

Circumference of circle is given by
2\pi r

Substitute, we get,


C=2\pi r


C=2\pi (18)=36\pi

Thus, Circumference of circle is 36π feet.
