a railroad crossing sign has a diameter of 30 inches. what is the area of the sign?

Sagot :

Answer:

706.5m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The sign is a circle

Area of a circle is (pi)r^2

d = 30 in -> r = d/2  = 30/2 = 15

Area = 3.14 x (15)^2 = 706.5m^2

dugo

Answer:

about 706.5 or 706.86

Step-by-step explanation:

to find this answer we need to use the area formula of a circle which is A = πr ^2

we know the diameter is 30, and the radius is half the of diameter, so we take 30 and divide it by 2, which should give us 15 for the radius. ( 30/2 = 15, so r = 15)

depending on how your teacher wants u to answer this you can use π on a calculator or use 3.14

now just plug in your numbers to formula

A = 3.14 * 15^2 or A = π * 15^2

and should equal about 706.5 or 706.86 (depending on if you use 3.14 or π)
