Question

The circumference of a circle is 6π inches. What is the area of the circle? Alternative Text A. 3π in.2 B. 9π in.2 C. 12π in.2 D. 36π in.2

Answer 1

B) 9π in^2

Explanation:

Circumference of a circle is C = πD

Divide 6π by π to get 6 then divide by 2 to get the radius of the circle

Area of a circle is A = πr^2

6/2 = 3 3 = r

π(3)^2 = 9π
