Q. Find the area of a circle with a circumference of 12.56 units.□ units 2
Find Radius of Circle: First, we need to find the radius of the circle. The formula for the circumference C of a circle is C=2×π×r, where r is the radius.
Calculate Circumference: We know the circumference is 12.56 units. So, 12.56=2×π×r. To find r, we divide both sides by 2×π.
Calculate Radius:r=2×π12.56. We can use 3.14 as an approximation for π. So, r=2×3.1412.56.
Find Area of Circle: Calculating that gives us r=6.2812.56, which is r=2 units.
Substitute Radius: Now we can find the area A of the circle using the formula A=π⋅r2.
Calculate Area: Substitute r=2 into the formula: A=3.14×(2)2.
Calculate Area: Substitute r=2 into the formula: A=3.14×(2)2.Calculating the area gives us A=3.14×4, which is A=12.56 units2.
