Question

A park has a circular swimming pool. The diameter of the pool is 19 feet. What is the distance traveled if you swim around the edge of the pool once? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answer 1

59.69 ft (nearest hundredth)

Explanation:

The edge of a circular pool is the circumference of a circle

circumference of a circle =
`\pi d` (where d is the diameter)

Given diameter = 19 ft

⇒ circumference = 19
`\pi` = 59.69 ft (nearest hundredth)
