Answer :

Given:

Given that the diameter of the circle is 10 kilometers.

We need to determine the area of the circle.

Radius of the circle:

The radius of the circle can be determined using the formula,

[tex]r=\frac{d}{2}[/tex]

Substituting d = 10, we get;

[tex]r=\frac{10}{2}[/tex]

[tex]r=5[/tex]

Thus, the radius of the circle is 5 kilometers.

Area of the circle:

The area of the circle can be determined using the formula,

[tex]A=\pi r^2[/tex]

Substituting r = 5, we get;

[tex]A=(3.14)(5)^2[/tex]

[tex]A=(3.14)(25)[/tex]

[tex]A=78.5[/tex]

Thus, the area of the circle is 78.5 square kilometers.
