Question
The city is putting a fountain at the entrance of the park. A scale drawing of the fountain is shown below.

A circle with a radius of 2


Scale
1 in. : 4 ft


What is the area of the fountain in square feet?
Responses
A 4𝜋4 𝜋
B 16𝜋16 𝜋
C 64𝜋64 𝜋
D 128𝜋

Answer 1

B 16𝜋16 𝜋

Area of a circle = πr^2
Area = π(2)^2
Area = 4π

Using the scale factor of 1 in. : 4 ft, the area in square feet would be 4^2 * 4π = 16π, which corresponds to option B.
