Answer:

Square: 144 m²

Circle: 113.04 m²

Explanation:

The formula for area of a square: side × side.

The formula for area of a circle: r²π (radius × radius × pi)

**SQUARES HAVE EQUAL SIDES**

As shown in the photo, the side lengths of the square are 12.

side × side

12 × 12 = 144

Therefore, 144 m² is the area of the square.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The diameter of the circle is 12 as well.

But, to find the area of the circle, we need the radius.

To find the radius of a circle, divide the diameter by 2.

12 ÷ 2 = 6.

6 is the radius.

Now we plug the numbers into the equation.

**3.14 IS A SUBSTITUTE FOR PI**

r²π (radius × radius × pi)

6²π (6 × 6 × 3.14) = 113.04

Therefore, 113.04 m² is the area of the circle.
