The radius of the circle is half the diameter, so:
radius = 22 inches / 2 = 11 inches
The formula for the area of a circle is:
area = pi x radius^2
Substituting the given values:
area = 3.14 x 11^2
area = 3.14 x 121
area = 380.54
Therefore, the area of the circle is 380.54 square inches to two decimal places.
Find the area of a circle that has a diameter of 22 inches. Substitute 3.14 for pi. Express your answer to the hundredths place
