What is the area of a circle with a diameter of 16 yards? Estimate the area to the hundredths place using 3.14 or π.

1 answer

The radius of the circle would be half of the diameter, which is 8 yards.

The formula to calculate the area of a circle is A = πr².

Using the given value of π as 3.14, the calculation would be:

A = 3.14 * (8)^2
= 3.14 * 64
= 200.96

Therefore, the area of the circle is approximately 200.96 square yards when rounded to the hundredth place.
