A circular flower bed in a botanical garden has a radius of 4 ft. What is the area of the flower bed? Use 3.14 for π . Enter your answer as a decimal in the box.
Use the equation for finding the area of a circle.
That is \(\pi r^{2}\)
Filling it in:
3.14(4)^2
Exponents first:
4^2 = 16
Then multiply:
3.14 x 16 = 50.24
So the area of the flower bed is about 50.24 feet squared.
Answer: Area of flower bed is 50.24 sq. ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Radius of a botanical garden of circle shape = 4 ft
We need to find the area of circle:
As we know the formula for "Area of circle" :
\(Area=\pi r^2\\\\Area=3.14\times 4\times 4\\\\Area=50.24\ ft^2\)
Hence, Area of flower bed is 50.24 sq. ft.
