Question

A zoo has a circular pool for its seals. The diameter of the pool is 32 feet. How much fence is needed to enclose the pool?

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is $32 \pi\ feet$ or $100.53\ feet$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To calculate how much fence is needed to enclose the circular pool, find the circumference of the circular pool

The circumference of a circle is equal to

$C=\pi D$

where

D is the diameter of the circle

In this problem we have

$D=32\ feet$

Substitute

$C=\pi (32)=32 \pi\ feet$

$C=32 \pi\ feet=100.53\ feet$
