A flying disc has a radius of 6 inches. What is the area of one side of the flying disc to the nearest square inch? Use 3.14 as an approximation for pi.
A)
113 square inches
B)452 square inches
C)38 square inches
D) 28 square inches
A = pi * r^2
113
To find the area of one side of the flying disc, we can use the formula for the area of a circle: A = πr^2, where A is the area and r is the radius.
Given that the radius of the flying disc is 6 inches, we can substitute this value into the formula:
A = 3.14 * 6^2
Simplifying this expression, we get:
A = 3.14 * 36
A ≈ 113.04
Rounded to the nearest square inch, the area of one side of the flying disc is 113 square inches.
Therefore, the correct answer is A) 113 square inches.
To find the area of one side of the flying disc, we need to use the formula for the area of a circle, which is A = πr^2, where A represents the area and r represents the radius.
Given that the radius of the flying disc is 6 inches, we can substitute this value into the formula:
A = 3.14(6^2)
A = 3.14(36)
A ≈ 113.04
To the nearest square inch, the area of one side of the flying disc is 113 square inches. Therefore, the correct answer is option A) 113 square inches.
