OpenStudy (abhisar):

For Part A Area of a square = \(\sf \pi \times r^2\) Where, r = radius = diameter/2

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Can u do it now?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

umm i still dont get it :(

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Which part?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for part A, a?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

??

OpenStudy (abhisar):

\(\huge \checkmark\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are you sure?

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Yes, are you?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now lets do part b

OpenStudy (abhisar):

No wait, no it's wrong.

OpenStudy (abhisar):

:(

OpenStudy (abhisar):

One silly mistake.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what is it

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Diameter is given 8, so radius will be 8/2 = 4. Correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Now, putting this value of radius in the formula I just told you we get area = \(\sf \pi \times 4^2\) = ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

whats the symbol in the beginning mean?

OpenStudy (abhisar):

It's called as "pi" and its value = 3.14. So if it is written \(\sf 16 \pi\), it actually means 16 \(\sf \times ~\pi\) or if you want to simplify it more it means 3.14 \(\sf \times\) 16

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Moving on to the question, the correct answer for part A is?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got 16

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Yes, \(\sf 16 \pi\) square inch to be more precise. Don't forget the "pi" !

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thank you so much... dont leave because i will be tagging you again!! :)

OpenStudy (abhisar):

I m not leaving, so shall we move to part B?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Any idea?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

uhh no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Abhisar

OpenStudy (abhisar):

So, any idea about Part B?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

whats the equation, ill solve it

OpenStudy (abhisar):

|dw:1433965184199:dw|

OpenStudy (abhisar):

This is ur square frame which is 2 inch wide. Area of a square = \(\sf side^2\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0k @Abhisar

OpenStudy (abhisar):

So the answer should be?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

b

OpenStudy (anonymous):

8

OpenStudy (abhisar):

oops..
