Answer:

The area of the circle

Explanation:

The area of a circle is given by:

A = pi•r^2

☝️That is "Area equals pi times r squared"

Fun fact: you can use r (radius) or d (diameter) to find the circumference (distance all the way around a circle)

C = pi • d

or C = 2pi • r

But for area (all the space inside)

A = pi • r^2

You get:

⇨ The area of the circle.

Work/Explanation:

When multiplying pi by the square of a circle's radius, we get the circle's area.

This is how it looks in a formula:


\bf{\pi* r^2}

Which can be simplified to


\bf{\pi r^2}

Which is the same as


\bf{A=\pi r^2}

Hence, you get the area of a circle.
