The area of a circular rose garden is 44 square meters. What is the radius of the garden?

Tasya [4]

The area of a circle is:

a=πr^2 dividing both sides by π

r^2=a/π taking the square root of both sides

r=√(a/π), in this case a=44 m^2 so:

r=√(44/π) m^2

r≈14.01 m^2 (to the nearest hundredth of a square meter)
