Answer: #1) 3. The semicircle has twice the area of the circle
#2) 3. 28.26 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
#1) The formula for area of circle is A=πr².
First, plugging in the radius for the circle, A=π(5)², we get an area of about 78.54 inches².
Plugging in the radius for the semicircle, A=π(10)², which is equal to 314.159.... However, since it is a SEMI-circle, we will divide this value by 2 to give us an area of about 157.08 inches².
Comparing the two areas, we see the semicircle has twice the area of the circle as 78.54 x 2 = 157.08.
#2) Again use the area of circle formula, A=πr². The radius is half the diameter, so half of 6cm=3cm, meaning r=3. plug it in.
A= π(3)²
A= 28.27 cm²
