Question

You are choosing sprinklers for an irrigation system. One sprinkler that covers a full circle specifies a watering radius of 14 ft at 25lbs per square inch of water pressure. What is the maximum area to the nearest sq. foot that this sprinkler will cover at this pressure?

Answer 1

Answer:

Area= 615 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply the formula for area of a circle to find the area watered when a sprinkler covers a full circle

Area of a circle= $\pi r^{2}$

r= 14ft

Area= 3.14 × 14²

Area=615.44 ft²

Area= 615 ft²
