Part A:
The circumference of a circle can be calculated using the formula: circumference = π * diameter
Given that the diameter is 6 feet and π is 3.14, we can plug in the values to find the circumference:
circumference = 3.14 * 6
circumference = 18.84 feet
Rounded to the nearest hundredth, the circumference of the play mat is 18.84 feet.
Part B:
The area of a circle can be calculated using the formula: area = π * (radius)^2
Given that the diameter is 6 feet, the radius (which is half the diameter) is 3 feet. We can plug in the values to find the area:
area = 3.14 * (3)^2
area = 3.14 * 9
area = 28.26 square feet
Rounded to the nearest hundredth, the area of the play mat is 28.26 square feet.
