Question

Calinda is painting the design on her bedroom wall. The large circle has a diameter of 32 inches. To the nearest square inch, how much paint swill she need for the shared reign on

Answer 1

804 inches

Explanation:

Amount of paint she would need is equal to the area of the circle

Area of a circle = πr²

π = 3.14

r = 32/2 = 16

The diameter is the straight line that passes through the centre of a circle and touches the two edges of the circle.

A radius is half of the diameter

3.14 x 16² = 804 in
