Answer:

The Area of the Ferris wheel is 31400 Square feet

Explanation:

The AREA formula for a circle:

The Area formula for the circle is
\pi r^2

where

r is the radius of the circle

The area of the Ferris Wheel:

The Height of the Ferris wheel = 200 foot

Here height of the Ferris wheel is the diameter

So the Diameter = 200

Then Radius =
(200)/(2) = 100 foot

Now the area of the Ferris wheel is

=>
\pi (100)^2

=>
\pi * 10000

=> 31400 square feet
