Answer: 12.56

Step-by-step explanation: Find area with Pie:

A= Pie x radius squared so 2 x 2 = 4 with what then we multiply

3.14 x 4 = 12.56

OR

Unless the radius is not 2 and 2 is diameter than we just divided 2 by 2 and get 1 the whole then 1 squared is 1 and 3.14 x 1 = 3.14

Answer:

3.14 in²

Explanation:

π= pi = 3.14

r = 2/2 = 1 inch

the diameter is the straight line that passes through the centre of a circle and touches the two edges of the circle.

A radius is half of the diameter

3.14 x 1² = 3.14 in²
