Use 3.14 for pi and round your final answer to the nearest hundredth.

Verified Answer :

Answer:

The area of the circle is 136.78 cm².

Step by step explanation:

The area of a circle is

\(A=\pi r^2\)                     ....(1)

Where, r is the radius of the circle.

The diameter is two of is radius.

\(d=2r\)

It is given that the diameter of circle is 13.2 cm.

\(13.2=2r\)

\(r=\frac{13.2}{2}=6.6\)

Substitute r=6.6 and π=3.14 in equation (1).

\(A=3.14\times (6.6)^2\)

\(A=136.7784\)

\(A=136.78\)

Therefore the area of the circle is 136.78 cm².
