If the area of a circle is 28.26 cm2 , what is the radius of the circle?

1 answer

To find the radius of a circle when given the area, we can use the formula for the area of a circle:

A = πr^2

Given that the area is 28.26 cm2, we can plug this into the formula and solve for the radius:

28.26 = πr^2

Divide both sides by π:

28.26/π = r^2

r^2 = 9

Take the square root of both sides to solve for r:

r = √9

r = 3

Therefore, the radius of the circle is 3 cm.
