3.14 x pi^2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Area of a circle is:
\(\pi r^2\)
So what's 28 * 28?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So can you figure out 3.14 x 28^2? @~*Ashtyn*~
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I'm confused -_-
OpenStudy (anonymous):
First, what is 28^2?

Ummmm... @AnswerMyQuestions
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the square of a number is the number times itself 28 times 28
OpenStudy (anonymous):
go back to formula to find area of a circle pi (3.14) times the radius (28^2) to solve
a= 3.14 times 28 times 28
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So 28*28 is what you want me to figure out ?

that would be the radius squared that is needed in the formula
OpenStudy (anonymous):
28*28=784
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes now put that number in the formula times pi (3.14)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
formula again to find area of circle is pi times radius squared
