Question

Note: Enter your answer and show all the steps that you use to solve this problem in the space provided. A circle has a diameter of 28 centimeters. Estimate the area of the circle. Use 22 7 for π .

Answer 1

The area of the circle is
`616\ cm^(2)`

Explanation:

we know that

The area of the circle is equal to

`A=\pi r^(2)`

In this problem we have

`r=D/2=28/2=14\ cm` ----> the radius is half the diameter

substitute

`A=(22/7)(14)^(2)=616\ cm^(2)`
