Given:

Diameter of the circular area = 14 ft

Since the area of the grass is circular, to find the area in square feet that this sprinkler sprays with water apply the area of a circle is formula:


A=\pi r^2

Where:


\text{radius, r = }(diameter)/(2)=(14)/(2)=7

Take π = 3,14

Thus, we have:


\begin{gathered} A=\pi r^2 \\ \\ A=3.14\ast7^2 \\ \\ A=3.14\ast49 \\ \\ A=153.86\text{ square f}eet \end{gathered}

Therefore, the area in square feet that this sprinkler sprays with water is 153.86 square feet

ANSWER:

B. 153.86 square feet
