The area of a circle is 16cm^2. What is the circumference in centimeters? Express in terms of Pie.

kristen000021:

C≈14.18 cm Use the formula: A= πr^2 C=2πr Solve for C- C=2 [(Squarroot)πA]=2·[(squarroot)π·16]≈14.17963cm

SsTDOGRednek:

My thing said that's wrong.

kristen000021:

then maybe its 256cm^2 The area of the circle is given by \(A=\pi r^{2}\). We know that \(A=256\text{\ cm}^{2}\). Therefore, we have the equation \(\pi r^{2}=256\). Divide both sides of the equation by \(\pi \): \(r^{2}=\frac{256}{\pi }\) Take the square root of both sides: \(r=\sqrt{\frac{256}{\pi }}\) Simplify the square root: \(r=\frac{\sqrt{256}}{\sqrt{\pi }}\) \(r=\frac{16}{\sqrt{\pi }}\)

32 is it

SsTDOGRednek:

it's 8 Pie 16/2 c=2 times Pie times 4 c= 8 Pie

kristen000021:

ur question doesn't divide tho

kristen000021:

but alr

SsTDOGRednek:

Hey that's what delta math told me to do so idk

SsTDOGRednek:

and the dividing is how you get the radius

kristen000021:

oh ok

kristen000021:

sorry

SsTDOGRednek:

It's ok, thankyou for trying to help though!

KnoxxyBoy:

also 2πr can be switched out for dπ if its easier for ya

SsTDOGRednek:

Diameter?

KnoxxyBoy:

yes

SsTDOGRednek:

Alr, makes sense. Thanks!
