Question

the S.A of the top surface of the water in a circular swimming pool is about 206 ft estimate the radius of the pool to the nearest foot

Answer 1

The surface area of the top of a cylindrical object is a circle.
\[A = πr^{2}\]\[206 = πr^{2}\]JJust solve for r :)

Answer 2

^What @Calcmathlete said

Answer 3

what is "r"

Answer 4

r = radius

Answer 5

well yeah but is "r" 206?

Answer 6

A = 206 as @Calcmathlete implied above

Answer 7

We know that \(A = \pi r^2\) is the formula for Area of a circle. Replacing A with 206 in the formula gives \(206 = \pi r^2\) which implies that A = 206.

The problem states: the surface area of the top surface of the water in a circular swimming pool is about 206 ft. In other words, \(A=206\).

Answer 8

The only thing left to do is solve for r. You can use 3.14 for \(\pi\).
