Question

The last customer of the day calls telling you they purchased 183 meters of fencing to fence in a circular area around their flagpole. They want to know how much area of concrete they'd need to buy to cover the entire circular pad around the flagpole. Using their fence as the circumference calculate how much area they will need to cover with the concrete for their circular pad.

Answer 1

GIVEN 183 IS DIAMETER,RADIUS=DIAMETER/2,SO R=91.5

`\text{CIRCUMFERANCE}=2\Pi R`
`C=2\ast3.14\cdot91.5=575meters`
