Answer:
If you use 3.14 as an approximation for PI, the answer will be A) 179 sq. feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
The process to determine the area of the sidewalk is computed by figuring the area of the outer circle (Diameter = 16' + 3' + 3') and subtracting the area of the fountain (Diameter = 16') from that.
Area of Circle = PI times Radius squared
Outer circle radius = (22 ft /2) = 11 ft
Area of outer circle (includes fountain area too) = 3.14 x 11 x 11 = 379.94 ~ 380
Inner circle radius = (16 ft / 2) = 8 ft
Area of Fountain = 3.14 x 8 x 8 = 200.96 ~ 201
Area of sidewalk = 380 - 201 = 179
