Answer: Area is a function of the radius, but radius is not a function of the area

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the area of a circle is A = PI^2 , the value of the area depends on the radius, so area is a function of the radius, but not the other way around.

Anything that is a function of something is when that something makes up one side of function as a variable for the entire equation.

So yes the area of a circle is a function of its radius
