Question

Find the area of the circle to the nearest whole square foot. Use 3.14 as an approximation for

Answer 1

The area of the circle is approximately 28 square feet.

Explanation:

The area of the circle is

`A=\pi r^2`

Given

• 
  `\pi =3.14`

• diameter = 6 feet

as

radius = r = d / 2

= 6 / 2

= 3 feet

So, the area of the circle is

`A=\pi r^2`

= 3.14 × 3²

`=9* \:3.14`

`=28.26`

= 28 square feet (to the nearest whole square)

Therefore, the area of the circle is approximately 28 square feet.
