Question

At a carnival, Hayley gets to spin a prize wheel. It has a radius of 8 inches. What is the prize wheel's area?

Answer 1

200.96 in.

Explanation:

**THE PRIZE WHEEL IS THE SHAPE OF A CIRCLE.**

The formula for area of a circle is: πr² (3.14 × radius × radius).

**3.14 IS COMMONLY USED FOR PI**

According to the word problem, the prize wheel has a radius of 8.

πr² (3.14 × radius × radius)

π8² (3.14 × 8 × 8) = 200.96

Therefore, the area of the prize wheel is 200.96 in.

Answer 2

201.06in^2

Explanation:

Use area formula which is pi(r)^2
