Question

A gardener makes a new circular flower bed. The bed is ten feet in diameter. Calculate the circumference and the area of the circular flower bed.

Answer 1

Answer: Circumference and area of the circular flower bed are 62.85 ft and 314.28 ft² respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Radius of the circular flower bed = 10 feet

Circumference means fencing or perimeter of the circular flower bed.

Circumference of the circular flower bed is given by

$C=2\pi r\\\\C=2\times \frac{22}{7}\times 10\\\\C=62.85\ ft$

Area of the circular flower bed is given by

$Area=\pi r^2\\\\Area=\frac{22}{7}\times 10\times 10\\\\Area=314.28\ ft^2$

Hence, Circumference and area of the circular flower bed are 62.85 ft and 314.28 ft² respectively.

Answer 2

Circumference = Pi x Diameter
Circumference = 10 x 3.14
Circumference = 31.4 feet 

Area = Pi x Radius^2
Area = 3.14 x 5^2
Area = 3.14 x 25
Area = 78.5 feet
