Find the area A = π r2 A = (3.14)(5)2 A = 3.14 x 52 A = 3.14 x 25 Example 5 cm Find the area A = π r2 A = (3.14)(5)2 A = 3.14 x 52 A = 3.14 x 25 A = 78.5 cm2
Example 1 Find the area of the circle. Use 3.14 for π. Find the length of the radius. 10 ÷ 2 = 5 Write the area formula. A = πr2 Substitute the known values. A ≈ (3.14)(5)2 Square 5. A ≈ (3.14)(25) Multiply. A ≈ 78.5 The area of ⊙A is approximately 78.5 cm2.
Example 3 Find the exact area of W. Write the circle area formula. A = π r2 Substitute known values. A = π(3)2 Square 3. A = 9π The exact area of W is 9π ft2.
Use 3.14 to find the area of each circle. a. b. What is the exact area of a circle with a radius of 5 inches? 4 cm 16 mi
Communication Prompt What is the same about the formulas for area and circumference of a circle? What is different about the formulas for area and circumference of a circle? How will you remember that 2r is the formula for circumference and r² is the formula for area?
Example 2 Write the circle area formula. A = πr2 Jaira is having pizza for her birthday party. She can make two small pizzas, each with a radius of 6 inches, or one large pizza with a radius of 12 inches. Which option will give her more square inches of pizza? Write the circle area formula. A = πr2 Substitute known values and find the area of each size. Small: A = (3.14)(6)2 = (3.14)(36) = 113.04 Large: A = (3.14)(12)2 = (3.14)(144) = 452.16 Multiply the area of a small pizza by 2. 113.04 • 2 = 226.08 One large pizza gives Jaira twice as much pizza as two small pizzas.
