Exercise 6 Page 627

The area of a circle equals the product of π and the square of its radius.

About 33.2yd^2

Practice makes perfect

We are given that a circle has a radius of 3 14 yards.

Circle
We want to find the area of the circle. Recall that the area A of a circle equals the product of π and the square of its radius r. A = π r^2 In this case, r= 3 14. Let's calculate the area using this information. We can use 3.14 for π.
A = π r^2
Substitute

r= 3 14

A = π [( 3 14)^2]

π ≈ 3.14

A ≈ 3.14 [(3 14)^2]
