A circle has a diameter of 3 meters. Which statement about the circumference and area is true?
2 answers:
Answer:
The numerical value of the circumference is greater than the numerical value of the area.
Step-by-step explanation:
Diameter = 3 meters
The radius is half of diameter so,
Radius = 3 ÷ 2 = 1.5 meters
Circumference = 2πr (r is the radius)
= 2 x π x 1.5 = 9.42 meters (rounded to 3 significant figures)
Area of a circle = π
= π x
= π x 2.25 = 7.06 meters
