Make r the subject. d=2r. Find A, pie =3.14 and d=8cm

Question

Walk me through this question step by step

Answer 1

Hello Judith,

We need to find Area (A) of a circle. Formula for area of a circle is A = πr².

d = 2r

d/2 = r   (divide both sides by 2)

8/2 = r    (given d = 8)

4 = r or r = 4cm

Now substitute the value of r in A = πr²

A = 3.14 * 4 * 4

A = 50.24cm² (answer)
