Question

A round game table has a diameter of 1 m. How much plastic laminate is needed to cover the table top of this table? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth. Use 3.14 for Pi.

Answer 1

0.79

Explanation:

you have to round 0.785

Answer 2

0.785 meter square

Explanation:

Plastic laminate required to laminate the required table will be equal to area of that table.

Since the table is round one we have to find area of circle for which the formula is
`\pi* r^(2)`. where r is the radius of circle

Given:

Diameter of circle = 1m

radius of circle = Diameter of circle/2 = 1/2

Area of circle =
`\pi* r^(2)`.

substituting value or r and
`\pi` = 3.14 in the equation, we have

Area of circle = 3.14 * 0.5^2 = 0.785

0.785 meter square of laminate will be required to laminate the table.
