Question

Find the area enclosed by the figure. Use 3.14 for π.

Answer 1

We are asked to determine the area of a circle. To do that we will use the following formula:

$A=\pi r^2$

Where:

$\begin{gathered} A=\text{ area} \\ r=\text{ radius} \end{gathered}$

Now we substitute the value of the radius:

$A=\pi(9yd)^2$

Now we substitute the value of pi:

$A=(3.14)(9yd)^2$

Now we solve the operations:

$A=254.34yd^2$

Therefore, the area is 254.34 square yards.
