A gardener makes the new circular flower bed the bed is 14 feet in diameter calculate the circumference and the area of a circular flower bed

Respuesta :

Answer:

The circumference of the flower bed is 44 feet (approximately) and its area is 154 feet² (approximately).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Diameter of the flower bed is 14 feet.

Now, to calculate its area and circumference we need the radius.

So, radius(r) is half of the diameter.

[tex]r=14\div 2[/tex]

[tex]r=7 feet[/tex]

Now, to get the circumference(C) we put the formula:

[tex]C=2\pi r[/tex]

taking π = 3.14

[tex]C=2\times 3.14\times 7[/tex]

[tex]C=43.96[/tex]

Circumference = 43.96 feet.

And, to get the area(a) we put the formula:

[tex]a=\pi r^{2}[/tex]

[tex]a=3.14\times 7^{2}[/tex]

[tex]a=3.14\times 49[/tex]

[tex]a=153.86[/tex]

Area = 153.86 feet².

Therefore, the circumference of the flower bed is 44 feet (approximately) and its area is 154 feet² (approximately).
