What is the area of the top surface of a circular manhole cover that has a radius of 30 centimeters? Use 3.14 for π.

Verified Answer :

Given:
radius = 30 cm
π = 3.14

Find: Area of the top surface of a circular manhole cover.

Area of a circle = π r²

Area of a circle = 3.14 (30cm)²
                        = 3.14
900 cm²
Area of a circle = 2,826 cm²

The area of the top surface of a circular manhole cover is 2,826 cm
²

Area for a circle is π r² (pi equals r squared)
 3.14 30cm²
 3.14
900 cm²
 2,826 cm²

Answer: 2,826 cm squared.
