Question 284367: Mrs. Opie planned for her pond to be in the shape of a circle.She measured the diameter of the circle she had planned and found it to be 6 ft.What will be the area of her pond?____=b Answer by dawnhannah(7) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! In order to answer this question you need to know the formula for the are of a cirle, which is pie (3.14) times the radius squared. Since the diameter is 6 we divide that by 2 to get the radius. 6 divided by 2 is 3.
Now that you have the radius you can plug it into the formula.
3.14*3^2...3^2 is 9
so 3.14*9=28.26
The area for Mrs. Opies pond is 28.26 feet.
