Question

Elmer sees a flying saucer. The radius of the flying saucer is 17 feet. What is the area of the flying saucer (use 3.14 for pi and round to nearest tenth)

Answer 1

Area of the flying saucer =
`907.46 ft^2`

Explanation:

The Flying saucer is in the shape of a circle.

`Radius= 17 feet`

Area of the circular flying saucer=
`\pi *r*r`

:
`\pi =(22)/(7) =3.14`

Area=
`3.14*17*17`

Area of the flying saucer
`=3.14*289\\\\ =907.46 ft^2`

So, the area of the flying saucer is
`907.46 ft^2`
