What is the area in feet of a 12 inch circle?
The area of a circle is calculated using the formula A = πr^2, where A is the area and r is the radius of the circle. Since the diameter of the circle is 12 inches, the radius would be half of that, which is 6 inches. Converting inches to feet (1 foot = 12 inches), the radius would be 0.5 feet. Plugging this into the formula, the area of a 12-inch circle would be approximately 0.785 square feet.
How is pi in relation to a circle?
Pi is related to the area and the circumference of the circle. The area is Pi multiplied by the radius of the circle squared and the circumference is Pi times the diameter of the circle. if you're wondering how it works, pi is the area of a circle with radius of 1 (unit), and the circumference of a circle with a radius of ½ (unit).
What is the radius of a 60 inch diameter circle?
The radius of a circle is half of its diameter. Therefore, if the diameter of the circle is 60 inches, the radius would be half of 60, which is 30 inches. The formula to find the radius from the diameter is: radius = diameter / 2.
What is the area of a sector whose central angle is ninety degrees and has a radius of ten inches?
Well a circle has 360 degrees so a sector of 90 degrees has an area equal to 90/360 (or 1/4) of a circle with the equivalent radius. The area of a circle is defined as PI*Radius^2 so the area of a 90 degree sector will be 1/4*PI*Radius^2. The area will be 1/4*3.14*10^2 or 78.5 in^2.
How many square inches in a 20 inch Dia. circle?
15.707963267948965 square inches. I think.* * * * *That is a very accurate but very wrong answer.The correct answer is 314.159 sq inches (to 3 dp).******Yes, the correct answer is 314.159. Here's why:The area of a circle can be found by multiplying pi (3.14159...) by the square of the radius. (The radius of a circle is 1/2 the diameter)This 20" circle has a radius of 10", so its area is 3.14*10"*10"=314.159
