Question

How much larger is a pizza in 18-in square pizza pan than a pizza made in a 18-in diameter circular pan? Use 3.14 for pi

Answer 1

69.66 Square inches

Explanation:

Area of a Square = Length X Length

Length of the Square Pan =18 Inch

• Area of the Square Pan =18 X 18 =324 Square inches

Area of a Circle
`=\pi r^2`

Diameter of the Pizza Pan =18 Inch

Radius =Diameter/2=18/2=9 Inch

• Area of a circular pan
  `=3.14* 9^2=254.34 $ Square Inches`

Difference in Area =324-254.34

=69.66 Square inches

A pizza made in the square pan is 69.66 Square inches larger than that made in a circular pan.
