Question

A circle has a diameter of approximately 37 centimeters. What is the approximate area of the circle. Round to the nearest tenth.

A. 116.2cm^2
B. 342.3cm^2
D. 1,369cm^2
C. 1,074.7cm^2

Answer 1

Explanation:

Area = πr²

radius is equal to 1/2 the diameter

radius is equal to 1/2 37 cm

radius = 18.5 cm

π = 3.14

Area = (3.14) 18.5²

Area = 3.14 × 342.25

Area = 1074.7 cm²
