Step-by-step explanation:
42)
The radius of a circle is equal to half of its diameter.
Diameter = 18 feet
Radius = Diameter ÷ 2 = 18 ÷ 2 = 9 feet
Area of a circle = π
Substitute in known value of r
Area = π
Substitute in pi
Area = 3.14 *
Solve exponent
Area = 3.14159265359 * 81
Area = 254.4690049408
