Question

The radius of the circle on a basketball court is 6 feet. What are the approximate circumfrence and area of the circle

Answer 1

Circumference = 12π feet

Area = 36π square feet

Explanation:

The circumference of a circle is C=2πr, so a circle with a radius of 6 feet will have a circumference of 2π(6) = 12π feet

The area of a circle is A=πr², so a circle with a radius of 6 feet will have an area is π(6)² = 36π square feet
