The area of the circle with a 3 inch diameter is pi*1.5^2 = 7.069 square inches rounded

Area = A

radius of circle = r

pi = 3.14159265

A = pi x r^2

A = 3.14159265 * (1.5) ^ 2

A = 3.14159265 *2.25

A = 7.06858

The area of the circle is pi*1.5^2 = 7.069 square inches rounded

What is the area of a circle if the diameter 28.9m?

Area = pi*14.452 = 655.972 square m to 3 dp


If the diameter of a circle is 6 feet what is the area of the circle in square feet?

The area of a 6-foot diameter circle is about 28.274 square feet. A = pi r2 (r = 6/2 = 3) A = (3.1416)(32) = approximately 28.274


What is the area for a small 20ft Circle?

The area is the same as that of a big 20 ft circle. Assuming the 20 ft refers to the diameter of the circle, its area is 314.159 sq ft (to 3 dp)


How do you find the area of a circle if the circumference is 10?

We know that the area of a circle is pi * r2. We also know that the circumference of a circle is pi * d. Therefore, when you know the circumference of a circle and want to know the area, divide the circumference by pi to give you the diameter of the circle, divide the diameter by 2 to give you the radius, square the radius and then multiply by pi to get the area. So, 10/pi = 3.183. 3.183/2 = 1.5915. 1.59152 = 2.533 2.533 * pi = 7.958 to 3 decimal places. The area of your circle is therefore 7.958cm2.


How do you use pi to find a circle's dimensions?

Pi is defined as the ratio of the circumference of a circle to the diameter of the circle.Therefore, if you measure the diameter of the circle (call it 'D') then the circumference of the circle is pi times D.To find the area of the circle use the formula Area = pi* D2 /4 .Going one step further, to a sphere, if you measure the radius of the sphere (call it R, where R is half the diameter D), then:1) The surface area of the sphere is Area = 4 * pi * R2 .2) The volume of the sphere is Volume = (4/3) * pi * R3 .
