Answer:
Area = 733 m² (to the nearest meter)
Step-by-step explanation:
<u></u>
<u>Formulae</u>
- Circumference of a circle = 2
r
- Area of a circle =
(where r is the radius of the circle)
<u>Find the radius</u>
circumference = 96 m
Using the circumference of a circle formula:
⇒ 2r = 96
⇒ r = 96 ÷ 2 = 48
⇒ r = 48 ÷ = 48/
<u>Find the area</u>
radius r = 48/
Using the area of a circle formula:
⇒ A = r²
⇒ A = (48/
)²
⇒ A = 2304/
⇒ A = 733.3859778...
⇒ A = 733 m² (to the nearest meter)
