Question

Find the area of a circle

Answer 1

28.26 ft²

Explanation:

If the diameter is 6 feet, then the radius is 3 feet since 2r=d

The area formula in this case is 3.14×r² since it says "Use 3.14 for π".

3.14×3²=

3.14×9=

28.26 ft²

Answer 2

28.26 square feet

Explanation:

Area of a circle is:
`A=\pi r^2`

'r' is the radius.

We are given the diameter of 6ft. Since the diameter is twice the radius, the radius is 3 ft.

6/2 = 3

Using 3.14 for pi:

`A=3.14*3^2\\\rightarrow 3^2=9\\A=3.14*9\\\boxed{A=28.26}`

The area of the circle should be 28.26 square feet.
