we need to find the radius to find the area :\[C = 2\pi r\]lets plug in all the information for have\[42 = 2\pi r\]\[\frac{42}{2\pi } = r\]now plug in our new found radius into the area formula to get the answer \[A = \pi r^2\]

ohh so it would be 42/6.28 :/
OpenStudy (anonymous):
if you are using 3.14 as pi then it would be that :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
then i divide that right :/
OpenStudy (anonymous):
well what you get i will check you :)

6.69 :/
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yep i got round there too so now that we know the radius we need to plug in the r for the area of a cirlce which is \[A = \pi (6.69)^2\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
wait thats not my answer :/
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ohhh nv i got it lol so my answer would be 140.53 :/
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yep! :)
