If the area of a circle is 28.26 cm2, what is the radius of the circle?(1 point)

cm

1 answer

The formula for the area of a circle is A = πr^2, where A is the area and r is the radius.

Given that the area of the circle is 28.26 cm^2, we can set up the equation:

28.26 = πr^2

To solve for the radius, we will first divide by π:

r^2 = 28.26 / π

r^2 ≈ 9

Taking the square root of both sides, we get:

r ≈ √9

r ≈ 3

Therefore, the radius of the circle is 3 cm.
