Question

he diameter of an ice skating rink is 44 feet. In terms of π, what is the area of the rink to the nearest square yard? (9 ft2 = 1 yd2)

Answer 1

Answer:

The area of the circular ring is 53.73 π  sq. yards

Step-by-step explanation:

The diameter of the skating ring = 44 ft

Diameter =  2 x Radius

⇒Radius of the ring  = 44 / 2  = 22 ft

Now, 1 ft = 0.333333 yards

⇒22 ft  = 22 x 0.333333 yards = 7.3333 yards

Now, Area of the circular Ring = $\pi r^2$

or, $A = \pi (7.33)^2$

=  53.73 π  sq. yards

or, the area of the circular ring is 53.73 π  sq. yards
