A circle is painted in the center of a basketball court. If the diameter of the circle is 12 feet, what is the approximate amount of space inside of the circle? (Use 3.14 as an approximation of pi.)

Answer:

37.68

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to multiply the diameter by pi (3.14). If it was radius, then you have to multiply the radius twice with pi. (R x R x 3.14)

ANSWER: 37.68

Why? Well this question is asking for the circumference...and you get the circumference by multiplying 3.14 (pi) by the diameter.

Final Notes: The formula for finding the circumference with the diameter is

(C = [tex]\pi[/tex]d)   (diameter times 3.14)

if you want the formula for finding the circumference with only the radius here you go,   (Radius times 3.14 then times it by 2)

(C = 2[tex]\pi[/tex]r)

Hope this helps!!
