A circle with diameter 16 inches.
A) 64
B) 79
C) 201
D) 804

Answer 1

Statement:

The circle has a diameter of 16 inches.

To find out:

The area of the circle.

Solution:

• Diameter of the circle = 16 inches.

• Radius of the circle
• = Diameter ÷ 2
• = 16 inches ÷ 2
• = 8 inches

• π = 3.14

• We know, area of a circle = πr² where r is the radius.

• Therefore, the area of the circle
• = 3.14 × (8)² square inches
• = 3.14 × 64 square inches
• = 200.96 square inches
• = 201 square inches [rounded to the nearest square inch]

Answer:

C) 201 square inches

Answer 2

Answer:

$Solution,\\Here,\\Diameter(d)=16 inches\\radius(r)=16inches/2=8inches\\Now, \\ Area=\pi r^{2} \\ Area=3.14*(8inches)^{2} \\ Area=3.14*64inches^{2} \\Area=200.96inches^{2} =201inches^{2}$

Hence, Option c is correct.
