Question

A park has a large circle painted in the middle of the playground area. The circle is divided into 4 equal sections, and each section is painted a different color. The radius of the circle is 10 meters. What is the area of each section of the circle

Answer 1

The area of each section of the circle is 25\pi\ m^{2}25π m2

Explanation:

we know that

The area of a circle is equal to

A=\pi r^{2}A=πr2

we have

r=10\ mr=10 m

substitute

A=\pi (10^{2})=100\pi\ m^{2}A=π(102)=100π m2

To find the area of each section divide the complete area of the circle by 44

so

100\pi\ m^{2}/4=25\pi\ m^{2}100π m2/4=25π m2
