Question

Find the diameter of a circle with an area of 226.98 square inches

Answer 1

We are given here Area of circle as 226.98 square inches.

Formula to find area of circle is given as :

$Area of circle = \pi r^{2}$

plugging value of A as 226.98 square inches and pi as 3.14, we have

$226.98 = (3.14) r^{2}$

$72.3 = r^{2}$

r=8.5

Now we know that diameter = 2 * radius.

multiplying radius with 2 we have 8.5*2 = 17

Answer : Diameter is 17 inches.
