1. **Circumference of a circle with a diameter = 4 feet:**
The formula for the circumference of a circle is:
\[
C = \pi \times \text{diameter}
\]
Using \(\pi \approx 3.14\):
\[
C = 3.14 \times 4 = 12.56 \text{ feet}
\]
The closest estimate among the given choices is:
\[
\text{13 feet}
\]
2. **Circumference of a circle with a diameter of 3.25 meters:**
Using the formula:
\[
C = \pi \times \text{diameter}
\]
With \(\pi \approx 3.14\):
\[
C = 3.14 \times 3.25 = 10.205 \text{ meters}
\]
Rounded to the hundredths place, it is:
\[
10.21 \text{ meters}
\]
3. **Circumference of a circle with a radius of 2.5 feet:**
First, find the diameter:
\[
\text{Diameter} = 2 \times \text{radius} = 2 \times 2.5 = 5 \text{ feet}
\]
Using the circumference formula with \(\pi \approx 3.14\):
\[
C = 3.14 \times 5 = 15.7 \text{ feet}
\]
4. **Area of a circle with a radius of 12 feet:**
The formula for the area of a circle is:
\[
A = \pi \times (\text{radius})^2
\]
Using \(\pi \approx 3.14\):
\[
A = 3.14 \times (12)^2 = 3.14 \times 144 = 452.16 \text{ square feet}
\]
5. **Area of a circle with a diameter of 10 millimeters:**
First, find the radius:
\[
\text{Radius} = \frac{\text{diameter}}{2} = \frac{10}{2} = 5 \text{ mm}
\]
Using the area formula with \(\pi \approx 3.14\):
\[
A = 3.14 \times (5)^2 = 3.14 \times 25 = 78.5 \text{ square mm}
\]
So, the answers are:
1. 13 feet
2. 10.21 meters
3. 15.7 feet
4. 452.16 square feet
5. 78.5 square mm
1. **Circumference of a circle with a diameter = 4 feet:**
\[
C = \pi \times \text{diameter} \approx 3.14 \times 4 = 12.56 \text{ feet}
\]
The closest choice is:
\[
13 \text{ feet}
\]
2. **Circumference of a circle with a diameter of 3.25 meters:**
\[
C = \pi \times \text{diameter} \approx 3.14 \times 3.25 = 10.205 \text{ meters}
\]
Rounded to the hundredths place:
\[
10.21 \text{ meters}
\]
3. **Circumference of a circle with a radius of 2.5 feet:**
\[
\text{Diameter} = 2 \times \text{radius} = 2 \times 2.5 = 5 \text{ feet}
\]
\[
C = \pi \times \text{diameter} \approx 3.14 \times 5 = 15.7 \text{ feet}
\]
4. **Area of a circle with a radius of 12 feet:**
\[
A = \pi \times (\text{radius})^2 \approx 3.14 \times 12^2 = 3.14 \times 144 = 452.16 \text{ square feet}
\]
5. **Area of a circle with a diameter of 10 millimeters:**
\[
\text{Radius} = \frac{\text{diameter}}{2} = \frac{10}{2} = 5 \text{ mm}
\]
\[
A = \pi \times (\text{radius})^2 \approx 3.14 \times 5^2 = 3.14 \times 25 = 78.5 \text{ square mm}
\]
All calculations have been verified, so the answers are indeed:
1. 13 feet
2. 10.21 meters
3. 15.7 feet
4. 452.16 square feet
5. 78.5 square mm
