The spray from a lawn sprinkler makes a circle 40 feel in radius. What are the approximate diameter, circumference, and area of the circle of lawn watered

Respuesta :

Our first step is to figure out what formulas are needed for diameter, circumference, and area of a circle.

Diameter is simply twice the size of the radius so:
2 * radius = 2 * 40 feet = 80 ft.

Circumference = 2 * pi * radius = 80 ft * pi 
If we say that pi = 3.14, then:
circumference = 251.2 ft.

Area = pi * radius^2 = pi * 1600 ft^2
Once again, if we assert pi = 3.14, then:
area = 3.14 * 1600 ft^2 = 5024 ft^2.
