The area of every circle is (pi) (radius²) .
Radius = 1/2 of the diameter, so the area of your circle is
(pi) x (8 cm)² = 201 cm² . (rounded)
(pi) is not 3 . There's nothing wrong with approximating (pi),
but 3 is more than 4.5% wrong, and that's too much. There's
no reason why 3.14 should be too hard to handle.
Hey there!
A state border is thousands of miles long (some of them). Meters would be too small of a measurement. Centimeters is even smaller. So the answer is B. Because this uses the least amount of numbers.
I hope this helps!
Cos = adjacent over hypotenuse
cos33 = b/170
170cos33 = b
b = 142.574 inches
