Question

the diameter of a circle is 44.8 kilometers. what is the circle’s area? round your answer to the nearest hundredth. square kilometers

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate the circle's radius

$r = \frac{44.8}{2} = 22.4$ kilometers

Step2: Apply the circle area formula

$A = \pi r^2 = \pi \times (22.4)^2$

Step3: Compute and round the result

$A = \pi \times 501.76 \approx 1576.05$ square kilometers

Answer:

1576.05 square kilometers
