Question

What is the area of a circular pool with a diameter of 26 ft?

Answer 1

169π ft² or approximately 530.92 ft²

1) Considering a pool shaped like a circle:

2) Since the Diameters is twice the radius, then we can write:

`\begin{gathered} R=13ft \\ A=\pi(13)^2 \\ A=169\pi ft^2\text{ or }\approx\text{530}.92ft^2 \end{gathered}`

3) So the are of the pool is 169π ft² or approximately 530.92 ft²
