Question

question 3 of 10 what is the approximate area of the circle shown below? 17.5 m o a. 962 m² b. 55 m² c. 110 m² d. 3848 m²

Explanation:

Step1: Recall area formula

The area formula of a circle is $A = \pi r^{2}$, where $r$ is the radius.

Step2: Substitute radius value

Given $r = 17.5$ m, so $A=\pi\times(17.5)^{2}=\pi\times306.25$.

Step3: Approximate $\pi$

Take $\pi\approx 3.14$. Then $A\approx3.14\times306.25 = 961.625\approx962\ m^{2}$.

Answer:

A. $962\ m^{2}$
