Suzanne is making a circular table out of a square piece of wood. The radius of the circle that she is cutting is 3 feet. How
1 answer:
Answer:
The waste Suzanne is going to have is around 7.726.
8 if looking for nearest square foot.
Step-by-step explanation:
Area for a square - x*x (length times length)
Area for a circle - r^2*pi
Find the area of the circle first, which plug in r as 3.
3^2*pi
9pi
≈28.27433
Notice for a circle inside a square, the length of the square is the diameter of the circle.
By knowing 2r=diameter, we know the length of the square is 6
substitute x as 6.
6*6=36
Find the waste= Area of square - Area of circle
36-28.27433
≈7.726
The image I attached should give you a clue on how the problem is being done and help you to understand what the 3 feet means.
