Question

Find the area of a circle with a diameter of 20 inches. Use 3.14 for pi

Answer 1

Answer:

The area of the circle is 314 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Area if a circle = πr²

r = radius

r= d/2

r=20 /2

r=10 inches

Area =3.14×10²

= 3.14×100

=314 inches

Answer 2

Answer:

314 in. cubed

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the area of a circle is:

A= πr²

Pi is 3.14 so substitute that in

A= 3.14(r)²

The radius is 10 because the radius is half of the diameter.  Half of 20 is 10.  So substitute that in the radius symbol.

A= 3.14(10)²

Square 10, which is 10 times 10.  10 times 10 equals 100.

A= 3.14(100)

100 times 3.14 is 314 because 100 has two zeroes which means you move the decimal point in 3.14 two places to the right.  It gets you 314.0 which is just 314.

A= 314
