What is the area of this circle? (Express your answer using π.) A. A = 144π cm2 B. A = 6π cm2 C. A = 48π cm2 D. A = 36π cm2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1394524786539:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is the ans A

OpenStudy (shadowlegendx):

Do you know the formula for the area of a circle?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

not really

OpenStudy (shadowlegendx):

A=πr2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what is the ans

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is the ans A

OpenStudy (shadowlegendx):

So this is \[Area = π \times r ^{2} \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay

OpenStudy (shadowlegendx):

π is Pi π= 3.14

OpenStudy (shadowlegendx):

R stands for radius which is half of the diameter.

OpenStudy (shadowlegendx):

In this case, 6cm is r

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k

OpenStudy (shadowlegendx):

So you should have \[Area = 3.14 \times 6^{2}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think the ans is A

OpenStudy (shadowlegendx):

Incorrect

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then what is it

OpenStudy (shadowlegendx):

Look at all the answers and tell me what they all have in common?
