Question

What is the approximate area of the circle shown below?

Answer 1

D 616 cm^2

Explanation:

Area = pi r^2

= 14^2 * 3.142

= 615.832

Answer 2

A = 616 cm^2

Explanation:

The area of a circle is given by

A = pi r^2

A = pi (14)^2

A = pi (196)

Using 3.14 as an approximation for pi

A = 3.14 *196

A =615.44

The nearest approximation is

A = 616 cm^2
