how do you find the radius of a circle if you know the area?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

pi times the radius squared euals area so do that backwards

OpenStudy (precal):

use\[ A=\pi (r^{2})\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so if area =1cm2 and pi = 3.14 then radius = .5?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[R= \sqrt{A/\pi}\]

OpenStudy (precal):

were you told to use 3.14 as pi?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (precal):

then you can use 3.14 otherwise pi is pi

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay, thanks

OpenStudy (precal):

anytime :)

area = 50.24 pi= 3.14 so radius would equal 8?
