Question

The area of a circular field is 16π square miles. What is the diameter of the field in miles.

Answer 1

Answer:

8 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

When given area, we use the formula of 2√(area/pi). It may look slightly complex, but in this equation, we are fortunate that pi is in our area. This essentially cancels out the pi in the equation, simplifying it to √(16), which is simply 8!

Hope this helps you!

Answer 2

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Divide the area (in square units) by Pi (approximately 3.14159).

2. Take the square root of the result. This is the radius.

3. Now double the radius to get the diameter
