Find the area of a circle with (a) a radius of 9.2 centimeters and (b) a diameter of 50.5 inches.
Round your answers to the nearest hundredth.

Answer :

Answer:

Circle A: 265.9 cm²

Circle B: 2002.96 inches²

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Circle A

[tex]A=\pi r^2[/tex] where r is the radius of the circle

Plug in the radius 9.2 cm

[tex]A=\pi (9.2)^2\\A=84.64\pi \\A=265.90[/tex]

Therefore, the area of the circle is 265.9 cm² when rounded to the nearest hundredth.

Circle B

[tex]A=\pi (\frac{d}{2}) ^2[/tex] where d is the diameter of the circle (because radius=diameter/2)

Plug in the diameter 50.5 inches

[tex]A=\pi (\frac{50.5}{2}) ^2\\A=\pi (25.25) ^2\\A=637.5625\pi \\A=2002.96[/tex]

Therefore, the area of the circle is 2002.96 inches² when rounded to the nearest hundredth.

I hope this helps!
