C. 78.5 dm2
D. 25 dm2

Answer:

ANSWER:

78.5 dm²

FORMULA:

A = πr²

MEANINGS:

A means area

π means pi or 3.14 (rounded)

r means radius

HOW TO CHANGE DIAMETER INTO RADIUS TO FIND THE AREA OF A CIRCLE?:

just divide the diameter by two to get the radius.

FIRST LET'S SOLVE FOR THE RADIUS:

use the formula r = d/2

given: diameter of 10 dm

solve for the radius.

r = d/2

r = 10/2 or 10 ÷ 2

r = 5 dm

SOLUTION:

A = πr²

A = (3.14)(5 dm)²

A = (3.14)(25 dm²)

A = 78.5 dm²

therefore the area of the circle is

78.5 dm².
