find the area of circle o if DCBO is a rectangle and DB measure 10 units

Answer:
[tex]100\pi[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Identity the radius.
Since O is the center of the circle, and C and E lie on the circumference, OC and OE are the radii of the circle and thus,
OC=OE.
Step 2: Consider the rectangle.
All diagonals in a rectangle are congruent so this means
DB= OC ( OC is also a diagonal).
Thus, OC= 10 units.
Step 3: Analyze
So this means OE is also 10 units as well.
Since we know the length of the radius, Use the area of circle,
[tex]\pi {r}^{2} [/tex]
[tex]\pi( {10}^{2} ) = 100\pi[/tex]
So the area of a circle is 100 pi.
Answer:
314.2 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagonals of a rectangle are the same length, so segment OC is the same length as segment DB: 10 units. OC is a radius of the circle, which means the circle's radius is 10 units.
The area of a circle is given by ...
A = πr²
A = π(10 units)² = 100π units²
A ≈ 314.2 units²
The area of circle O is about 314.2 square units.
