Example: What is the area of a circle whose radius is 0.5 cm? Given: Radius(r) = 0.5 cm Area of a circle: πr2 = π x 0.52 = π x 0.25 = 0.25π sq cm
Example: What is the area of a circle whose diameter is 1 cm? Given: Diameter(d) = 1cm; So, Radius(r) = Diameter/2 = 1/2 = 0.5cm Area of a circle: πr2 = π x 0.52 = π x 0.25 = 0.25π sq cm
