Question

a circle has a diameter of 10cm what is the best proximation of this area use 3.14 to approximate for pi

Answer 1

The meaning of the area is the measurement of a surface in this case a circle, which can be find by using the formula A=πr^2, where r is equal to the radius of the circle.

On this exercise is given that a circle has a diameter of 10cm and it is asked to find its area, as previous said the only way to find the area of a circle is to use the formula A=πr^2, but on this case the radius is not given. As result you have to divide the measurement of the diameter by two, and the number found represents the radius.

10cm/2= 5cm      The radius of the circle is 5cm.

Now that the radius is known you can substitute the values in the formula to find the area of the circle.

A=πr^2
A=(3.14)(5)^2
A=(3.14)(25)
A=78.5 cm^2

The area of the circle is 78.5 square centimeters.

Answer 2

Hello!

The answer would be $75.8^{cm2}$

Hope this helped!
