Answer:
A = 16pi or 50.24 units^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a circle is given by
A = pi r^2
We need to find the radius
r = d/2 where d is the diameter
r = 8/2 =4
Substituting into the equation for area
A = pi (4)^2
A = 16pi
We know pi can be approximated by 3.14
A = 16(3.14)
A =50.24 units^2
