Question

6 Q Find the area of the circle pictured above. Round your answer to the nearest tenth

Answer 1

28.3 units^2

Explanation:

The area A of the circle is given by the formula

`A=\pi((d)/(2))^2`

where

π = 3.1415..

d = diameter of the circle.

Now, in our case d = 6; therefore,

`A=\pi((6)/(2))^2`
`A=(3.1415)(3)^2`
`A=(3.1415)(9)`
`A=28.274`

Rounded to the nearest tenth this is

`A=28.3`
