Answer:


\boxed {\boxed {\sf 254.34 \ yd^2}}

Explanation:

The area of a shape is the space occupied by the surface of an object. The area of a circle can be calculated using the following formula.


a= \pi r^2

The radius (r) of the center circle on the soccer field is 9 yards. We are asked to use 3.14 for pi.

  • r= 9 yd
  • π= 3.14

Substitute these values into the formula.


a= (3.14)(9 \ yd)^2

Solve the exponent.

  • (9 yd)² = 9 yd * 9 yd = 81 yd²


a= (3.14)(81 \ yd^2)

Multiply.


a= 254.34 \ yd^2

The area of the center circle on the soccer field is 254.34 square yards.
