Your family has a circular swimming pool. The radius of the pool is 9 feet and it's depth is 4 feet. What is the volume of the pool? Use 3.14 to approximate pi. Round to the nearest hundredth.

Answer 1

To find the volume of the pool, we will first calculate the area of the circle formed by the pool's base, and then multiply it by the depth.

The area of a circle is given by the formula A = πr^2, where r is the radius of the circle.

Given that the radius of the pool is 9 feet, we have:
A = 3.14 * 9^2
A = 3.14 * 81
A = 254.34 square feet

Now, the volume of the pool is given by multiplying the area of the base by the depth:
V = 254.34 * 4
V = 1017.36 cubic feet

Therefore, the volume of the pool is approximately 1017.36 cubic feet.
