Find both the area and circumference of a circle with

a) radius of 12 inches b) diameter of 25 centimeters

I NEED ANSWER!!

Respuesta :

A) Area of circle is 452.16 square inches and circumference of circle is 75.36 inches

B) Area of circle is 490.625 square centimeters and circumference of circle is 78.5 cm

Solution:

The area of circle is given as:

[tex]area = \pi r^2[/tex]

Where "r" is the radius of circle

The circumference of circle is given as:

[tex]c = 2 \pi r[/tex]

Where "r" is the radius of circle

a) radius of 12 inches

r = 12 inches

Substitute r = 12 and [tex]\pi = 3.14[/tex] in area formula

[tex]area = 3.14 \times (12)^2\\\\area = 3.14 \times 144 = 452.16[/tex]

Thus area of circle is 452.16 square inches

Substitute r = 12 and [tex]\pi = 3.14[/tex] in circumference formula

[tex]c = 2 \times 3.14 \times 12 = 75.36[/tex]

Thus circumference of circle is 75.36 inches

b) diameter of 25 centimeters

diameter = 25 cm

We know that,

[tex]radius = \frac{diameter}{2}[/tex]

[tex]radius = \frac{25}{2} = 12.5[/tex]

Thus radius is 12.5 cm

Substitute r = 12.5 and [tex]\pi = 3.14[/tex] in area formula

[tex]area = 3.14 \times (12.5)^2\\\\area = 3.14 \times 156.25 = 490.625[/tex]

Thus area of circle is 490.625 square centimeters

Substitute r = 12.5 and [tex]\pi = 3.14[/tex] in circumference formula

[tex]c = 2 \times 3.14 \times 12.5 = 78.5[/tex]

Thus circumference of circle is 78.5 cm
