The circumference of a circular rug is 24.8 meters. What is the area of the rug? Use 3.1 for pi

Answer:
The area of rug is 48.9 m^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's assume radius of rug is r m
we know formula for circumference as
[tex]C=2\pi r[/tex]
we are given
C=24.8
and then we can solve for r
[tex]24.8=2\pi r[/tex]
[tex]r=3.947[/tex]
now, we can use area formula
[tex]A=\pi r^2[/tex]
we can plug r
and we get
[tex]A=\pi (3.947)^2[/tex]
[tex]A=48.94227[/tex]
So,
The area of rug is 48.9 m^2
