Question

The clock face in a famous clock tower has a radius of about 5 meters. What is the area of the clock face to the nearest square meter? Use 3.14 as an approximation for .

Answer 1

Answer:

The area of the clock face is $79\ m^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of a circle is equal to

$A=\pi r^{2}$

we have

$r=5\ m$

$\pi=3.14$

substitute

$A=(3.14)(5^{2})=78.5\ m^{2}$

Round to the nearest square meter

$78.5\ m^{2}=79\ m^{2}$

Answer 2

Area = $\pi$ * r^2 = 3.14 *25 = 78.5 m sqaure.
79 square meter when you round it up
