Question

The diameter of a circle
Is 8 inches . What is the area ?

Answer 1

Hello There!

`GraceRosalia` is here to help you!

We are given that

d=8 in.

We know that the radius is 1/2 of d or r=d/2. So the radius is 4.

However, we have to find the area.

The formula for the area of a circle is:

A=
`\pi`
`r^(2)`

We know that r=4, so all we have to do is plug it into the formula:

A=
`\pi (4)^(2)`

Remember that only the radius is squared.

A=
`\pi *16`

A=50.265

Let's round to the nearest tenth:

A=50.3

Hope this helps you!

Answer 2

radius=d/2 = 8/2 = 4inch.

Explanation:

area = πr²

16π(inch)². or 352/7 (inch)².

hope this helps you.
