Find the area of a circle that has a diameter of 11 inches. Approximate Π as 3.14. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

A =

in. 2

Answer: 94.99 in^2

Step-by-step explanation: The equation for the area of a circle is A=πr^2. To solve this, we need to find the radius. The diameter is the whole circle, whole the radius is half. So divide the diameter by 2.

11/2 = 5.5

The radius is 5.5 inches. Plug the radius into the equation.

A=π5.5^2

Square the 5.5 first. You will get 30.25.

A=π30.25

Plug in 3.14 for pi.

A=3.14 x 30.25

Multiply.

A=94.985

Round to the nearest hundredth.

A=94.99

The area of the circle is 94.99 in^2.
