A circular sprinkler spreads water up to 8 meters away. What area of the lawn gets watered?
Thank you
A = pi * r^2
A = 3.14 * 64
A = _______ sq. m.
You are welcome.
To find the area of the lawn that gets watered by the circular sprinkler, we can use the formula for the area of a circle.
The formula for the area of a circle is A = πr^2, where A is the area and r is the radius of the circle.
In this case, the sprinkler spreads water up to 8 meters away. The radius of the circle is half of the diameter, so the radius of the circle is 8/2 = 4 meters.
Now, we can substitute the value of the radius into the formula to find the area of the lawn that gets watered.
A = πr^2
= π(4)^2
= π(16)
≈ 50.265 square meters
Therefore, the area of the lawn that gets watered by the circular sprinkler is approximately 50.265 square meters.
