Answer: C=16π cm or 50.24 cm

Explanation:

The formula for area and circumference are similar with slight differences.


C=2\pi r


A=\pi r^2

Notice that circumference and area both have
\pi and radius.


64\pi=\pi r^2 [divide both sides by
\pi]


64=r^2 [square root both sides]


r=8

Now that we have radius, we can plug that into the circumference formula to find the circumference.


C=2\pi r [plug in radius]


C=2\pi 8 [combine like terms]


C=16\pi

The circumference Is C=16π cm. We can round π to 3.14.

The other way to write the answer is 50.24 cm.

Answer:

50.27 cm

Explanation:

We Know

The area of the circle = r² · π

Area of circle = 64π cm²

r² · π = 64π

r² = 64

r = 8 cm

Circumference of circle = 2 · r · π

We Take

2 · 8 · (3.1415926) ≈ 50.27 cm

So, the circumference of the circle is 50.27 cm.
