Question

Two circles have the same radius. Complete the description for whether the combined area of the two circles is the same as the area of a circle with twice the radius.

Answer 1

Answer:

it would have twice the area of one circle because the radius would double therefore the inside/area would double

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

no!

Two circles of radius r

= 2(π)(r^2)

= 2π r^2

one circle of radius 2r

= π(2r)^2

= 4π r^2

use an example, eg. r = 3

two circles with r = 3

= 2π(3^2) = 18π

one circle with radius 6

= π(6^2)

= 36π

notice the singe large circle is twice the area of the two smaller ones
