The area of circle B 144 pi ft². how do you Find the circumference of circle B please help

OpenStudy (science0229):

First of all, what is the formula for the area of an circle with the radius 'r'?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

pi r2

OpenStudy (science0229):

Good. Now, that area is given as 144pi. pi r^2=144pi --------> r^2=144 ---------> r=12 or -12. Now, radius can't be negative, so r=12

OpenStudy (anonymous):

pi r2

OpenStudy (science0229):

That's the area formula.

OpenStudy (science0229):

Circumference formula is 2pi r

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh

OpenStudy (science0229):

we know that r=12, so you can get the circumferece easily.

OpenStudy (science0229):

Don't forget the unit.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok
