Answer:

6 meters

Explanation:

The question says that Shirley has a circular rug in her dinning room that has an area of 36 pie square meters and we are now asked to find the radius of the rug.

We all know that if the rug in Shirley's room is in the shape of a circle and the area of her rug is 36 pie,it also means that we can use the area of a circle which we know as pie × r²

If we apply the above formula,we have

Pie × r² = 36 pie

r = √36

r = 6m

From this solution we can all agree that the radius of the rug I'm Shirley's dinning room is 6m

Answer: The radius of the circular rug is 6 meters.

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply the next formula:

Area of a circle (A) = pi r²

Where r is the radius:

Replacing with the values given:

36 pi=pi r²

Dividing both sides by pi:

36 = r²

√36= r

r = 6 meters

So, the radius of the circular rug is 6 meters.

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
