The formula for the area of a circle is A = πr2, where π is pi, which is 3.14159 rounded to five decimal places, and r is the radius of the circle. Radius is half the diameter of a circle. The radius is a distance measurement, such as meters or feet. Suppose you have a circle with a radius of 0.25ft.

A = πr2 = 3.14159 x (0.25ft)2 = 3.14159 x 0.0625ft2 = 0.19635ft2

If you look carefully, you will see that the radius, a distance measurement, is squared, so the area of a circle will always be a squared distance measurement, such as ft2, in2, m2, cm2, etc... .

What is the Measure remaining area outside a circle within a square?

A circle within a square has a diameter equal to the side of the square = ' D '. Area of the square = D2 Area of the circle = pi R2 = pi (D/2)2 = pi/4 D2 Area inside the square but outside the circle = D2 - (pi/4 D2) = (1 - pi/4) D2 = 0.2146 D2(rounded)


How find the area of a square when a circle is inside?

You find the area of the whole square first. Then you find the area of the circle inside of it And then subtract the area of the circle from the area of the square and then you get the shaded area of the square


How do you find the area of a circle outside a square?

To find the area of a circle outside a square, first calculate the area of the circle using the formula ( A_{circle} = \pi r^2 ), where ( r ) is the radius of the circle. Next, find the area of the square using ( A_{square} = s^2 ), where ( s ) is the side length of the square. Finally, subtract the area of the square from the area of the circle: ( A_{outside} = A_{circle} - A_{square} ). If the circle is completely outside the square, the area outside is simply the area of the circle.
