Do you know the formula for area of a circle?

OpenStudy (chosenmatt):

A=pi r ^2

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

yep, so first we need to find the area of that circle

OpenStudy (chosenmatt):

okay

OpenStudy (chosenmatt):

@sleepyjess

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

can you do that?

OpenStudy (bee_see):

Area of circle = pi times r^2= pi times 5^2 = 25pi. The 5 comes from y/2 since the radius is half of a diameter, which is 10 in this case.

OpenStudy (chosenmatt):

no i need help with that part

OpenStudy (chosenmatt):

@Bee_see

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

The radius is half of the diameter, the diameter is given as y

OpenStudy (bee_see):

Then. Find the area for rectangle.Area of rectangle= L X W = 18 X 10=180. Add 25pi + 180. We get 258.53. Round the answer. We get 253.5.

OpenStudy (chosenmatt):

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MY QUESTION WENT AWAY AFTER ALL THIS TIME :(

OpenStudy (bee_see):

258.5.

OpenStudy (bee_see):
