A circular fountain 10 feet in diameter has a circular walk 3 feet wide paved around it. What is the area of the walk?
1 answer:
Hi there!
• Radius =
ft = 5 ft.
Area of the fountain = πr² = 3.14 x (5)² = 78.5 ft²
•Radius for fountain n' walk =
= 
= 6.5 ft
Area of fountain n' walk = πr² = 3.14 x (6.5)² = 132. 6 ft²
| Area of th' Circular walk |
132.6 - 78.5 ft² = 54. 1 ft²
ar( Larger circle ) - ar( Smaller circle )
Hence,
The area of the walk around the fountain is 54. 1 ft²
