Question

Find the circumference and the area of a circle with diameter 2 yd . Use the value for 3.14 for , and do not round your answers. Be sure to include the correct units in your answers.

Answer 1

Answer:

The circumference and the area of the circle are 6.28 yards and 3.14 yd² respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference: This is defined as the distance around a circle.

The circumference of a circle is

P = πd............................. Equation 1

Where p = circumference of the circle, d = diameter of the circle

Area: This is the region bounded by a plane surface.

The area of a circle is

A = πd²/4 .................................. Equation 2

Where A = area of the circle, π = pie = constant.

Given: d = 2 yd.

Constant: π = 3.14

Substituting these values into equation 1 and 2 respectively.

P = 3.14(2)

P = 6.28 yard.

P = 6.28 yd

and

A = 3.14(2)²/4

A = 3.14×4/4

A = 3.14 yd²

Thus the circumference and the area of the circle are 6.28 yards and 3.14 yd² respectively.
