A clock's minute hand travels one full circle each hour. A particular clock's minute hand is 10. 2 cm. What is the approximate area covered by that minute hand in 3 hours? Use 3. 14 for π. 192. 17 cm² 326. 69 cm² 980. 06 cm² I don't know.

Respuesta :

In three hours, it will cover 3 full circles. Then the area of the circle covered in three hours is 980.55 cm².

What is a circle?

It is a locus of a point drawn at an equidistant from the center. The distance from the center to the circumference is called the radius of the circle.

A clock's minute hand travels one full circle each hour.

A particular clock's minute hand is 10.2 cm.

In one hour, it covers one full circle. Then in three hours, it will cover 3 full circles.

The area of the circle covered in three hours will be

[tex]\rm Area \ of \ circle \ in\ 3\ hours = 3 * area\ of\ one\ circle\\\\Area \ of \ circle \ in\ 3\ hours = 3*\pi r^2\\\\Area \ of \ circle \ in\ 3\ hours = 3*\pi*10.2*10.2\\\\Area \ of \ circle \ in\ 3\ hours = 980.55[/tex]
