Show Answer Key & Explanations Step-by-step solution for: Area of a Circle Textbook Exercise - Corbettmaths

Problem Overview:


The task is to calculate the area of several circles given their radii. The formula for the area of a circle is:

\[
\text{Area} = \pi r^2
\]

where \( r \) is the radius of the circle. We will use \( \pi \approx 3.14 \) and round the final answers to 1 decimal place.

Step-by-Step Solution:



#### Question 1: Calculate the area of the following circles.

1. Circle (a): Radius = 4 cm
\[
\text{Area} = \pi r^2 = 3.14 \times (4)^2 = 3.14 \times 16 = 50.24 \, \text{cm}^2
\]
Rounded to 1 decimal place: 50.2 cm²

2. Circle (b): Radius = 7 cm
\[
\text{Area} = \pi r^2 = 3.14 \times (7)^2 = 3.14 \times 49 = 153.86 \, \text{cm}^2
\]
Rounded to 1 decimal place: 153.9 cm²

3. Circle (c): Radius = 8 cm
\[
\text{Area} = \pi r^2 = 3.14 \times (8)^2 = 3.14 \times 64 = 200.96 \, \text{cm}^2
\]
Rounded to 1 decimal place: 201.0 cm²

4. Circle (d): Radius = 10 m
\[
\text{Area} = \pi r^2 = 3.14 \times (10)^2 = 3.14 \times 100 = 314 \, \text{m}^2
\]
Rounded to 1 decimal place: 314.0 m²

5. Circle (e): Radius = 1.5 m
\[
\text{Area} = \pi r^2 = 3.14 \times (1.5)^2 = 3.14 \times 2.25 = 7.065 \, \text{m}^2
\]
Rounded to 1 decimal place: 7.1 m²

6. Circle (f): Radius = 50 cm
\[
\text{Area} = \pi r^2 = 3.14 \times (50)^2 = 3.14 \times 2500 = 7850 \, \text{cm}^2
\]
Rounded to 1 decimal place: 7850.0 cm²

7. Circle (g): Radius = 7 mm
\[
\text{Area} = \pi r^2 = 3.14 \times (7)^2 = 3.14 \times 49 = 153.86 \, \text{mm}^2
\]
Rounded to 1 decimal place: 153.9 mm²

8. Circle (h): Radius = 8.4 cm
\[
\text{Area} = \pi r^2 = 3.14 \times (8.4)^2 = 3.14 \times 70.56 = 221.5024 \, \text{cm}^2
\]
Rounded to 1 decimal place: 221.5 cm²

Final Answers for Question 1:


\[
\boxed{
\begin{aligned}
&\text{(a)} \, 50.2 \, \text{cm}^2, \, \text{(b)} \, 153.9 \, \text{cm}^2, \, \text{(c)} \, 201.0 \, \text{cm}^2, \, \text{(d)} \, 314.0 \, \text{m}^2, \\
&\text{(e)} \, 7.1 \, \text{m}^2, \, \text{(f)} \, 7850.0 \, \text{cm}^2, \, \text{(g)} \, 153.9 \, \text{mm}^2, \, \text{(h)} \, 221.5 \, \text{cm}^2
\end{aligned}
}
\]

#### Question 2: Calculate the area of the following circles.
Since the image does not provide the details for Question 2, I cannot solve it. Please provide the radii or diameters for the circles in Question 2 if you need further assistance.

Summary:


- Used the formula \( \text{Area} = \pi r^2 \).
- Rounded all answers to 1 decimal place.
- Provided detailed calculations for each circle in Question 1.
