measure of lengths of segments and arcs
what is the diameter of a circle if its area is 100pi cm^2 ?
solution
First,write the formula,
A=r^2 pi
now, substitute in what you know.
100 pi=r^2 pi
by dividing both sides of equation by pi
100=r^2
then,take the square root of both sides
10=r
Remember that you are solving for diameter
d=2r
d=2×10
d=20
the answer is the diameter , d= 20
The area of circle is 25 pi . what is the radius?
first write the formula , A=pi r^2
substitute in what you know.
25pi = r^2pi
by dividing both sides of the eq. by pi
25=r^2
take the square root of both sides
5=r
the answer is r=5 .
