Question

The diameter of a circle is 14cm. Which TWO statements are correct?

A

Answer 1

(a) and (e)

Explanation:

Given

`d = 14cm`

Required

Select the true statements

First, is a statement about the area.

The area is calculated as:

`Area= \pi*(d^2)/(4)`

So, we have:

`Area= 3.14*(14^2)/(4)`

`Area= 3.14*49`

(a) is true

Next, is a statement about the circumference.

This is calculated as:

`C = \pi d`

So, we have:

`C = 3.14 * 14`

(e) is true
