The circumference of a circle is 22m inches. Find the area of that circle.

Question

Substitute 3.14 for pi. Express your answer to the hundredths place.

Answer 1

First, we need to find the radius of the circle using the formula for circumference of a circle:
Circumference = 2 * pi * radius
22 = 2 * 3.14 * radius
22 = 6.28 * radius
radius = 22 / 6.28
radius ≈ 3.50m

Now, we can find the area of the circle using the formula for the area of a circle:
Area = pi * radius^2
Area = 3.14 * 3.50^2
Area = 3.14 * 12.25
Area ≈ 38.48m^2

Therefore, the area of the circle is approximately 38.48 square meters.
