Question

The distance around a circular park is 176 yards. What is the area of the park? Use 22/7 for π.

Answer 1

2464 yd²

Explanation:

Use the circle circumference formula: 2πr

2·
`(22)/(7)`·r=176

`(44)/(7)`r=176

r=176·
`(7)/(44)`

r=28

Area of circle formula: πr²

`(22)/(7)`·r²

`(22)/(7)`·28²

`(22)/(7)`·784

=2464 yd²
