The area of a circle can be calculated using the following formula:
[tex]A=\pi r^2[/tex]Where
A represents the area
r represents the radius of the circle
π is the number pi, you have to use 3.14 for the calculatins
You have to calculate the area of a circle that has a diameter of 20 inches. The radius of a circle is half the diameter:
[tex]\begin{gathered} r=\frac{d}{2} \\ r=\frac{20}{2} \\ r=10in \end{gathered}[/tex]The area of the circle can be determined as follows:
[tex]\begin{gathered} A=3.14\cdot10^2 \\ A=314in^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]The area of the circle is 314in²
