Question

Sharon is buying a circular rug for her room. The diameter of the rug is 8 feet which measurement is closest to the area of the rug in square feet

Answer 1

50.24 feet²

Explanation:

Given that:

Diameter of circular rug = 8 feets

To obtain the area of the circular rug, we use the formula for the Area of a circle = πr²

A = πr²

r = Radius of circle = diameter / 2 = 8 /2 = 4 feets

Area of circular rug = π * 4²

Area of circular rug = 3.14 * 16 = 50.24 feet²
