What is the area of a circle with a radius of 12 feet? Estimate the area to the hundredths place using 3.14 for π .

1 answer

The formula to calculate the area of a circle is A = πr^2, where A is the area and r is the radius.

Plugging in the given radius of 12 feet into the formula, we get:

A = 3.14 * (12)^2

Simplifying, we get:

A = 3.14 * 144

A ≈ 452.16

Therefore, the area of a circle with a radius of 12 feet is approximately 452.16 square feet.
