Q. Calculate the area of the circle that has a diameter of 1717 inches. Give your answers in terms of π\pi and rounded to the nearest hundredth.
  1. Find Radius: First, find the radius of the circle since the area formula requires the radius. The radius is half of the diameter.\newlineRadius = Diameter / 22 = 172=8.5\frac{17}{2} = 8.5 inches.
  2. Calculate Area: Next, use the area formula for a circle, A=πr2A = \pi r^2, where rr is the radius.\newlineArea = π×(8.5)2=π×72.25\pi \times (8.5)^2 = \pi \times 72.25.
  3. Round to Nearest Hundredth: Now, to provide the answer in terms of π\pi, the area is 72.25π72.25\pi square inches.\newlineTo round this to the nearest hundredth using π3.14\pi \approx 3.14:\newlineArea 3.14×72.25=226.865\approx 3.14 \times 72.25 = 226.865 square inches.
