A circle has a radius of 14 inches. What is the exact area of the circle in square inches? Use the word pi.

Answer 1

given the radius of the circle r = 14 inches

find the area

area of the circle formula = pi * r * r

pi *14 *14 = 196 pi sq inches

so the area of the circle in terms of pi is 196pi sq inches.

Answer 2

It would not serve you for me to do the problem for you. However, I will give you the strategy for you to do the problem yourself and learn more in the process than had I handed you the answer on a silver platter.

1) Look up the formula for the area of a circle.

2) Fill in the value of the radius of your circle for the generic r in the formula.

3) Do any calculation while leaving the pi symbol in your answer for area of your circle.

4) Include "square inches" as your unit.
