Use π=3.14. Round to the nearest tenth

Answer 1

Answer:

The area of the putting green is 1133.5 square feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a circle:

The area of a circle is given by:

$A = \pi r^2$

In which r is the radius, which is half the diameter.

The circular putting green has a diameter of 38 ft.

This means that $r = \frac{38}{2} = 19$

What is the area of the putting green?

$A = \pi r^2 = 3.14 * 19^2 = 1133.5$

The area of the putting green is 1133.5 square feet.
