can you help me with this problem

The area of a circle is found with the formula A = pi r^2, where pi represents 3.14. If a tile artist is placing tiles in a circular mosaic pattern and the area of the circle is 658 square feet, what is the approximate radius of the circle in feet?
10
13
14
17

My answer is 14 is that correct? Why?

Right.

thanks!

Why would it be C. 39??

To find the approximate length of each side of the square blanket, we need to find the square root of its area.

The given area of the blanket is 1,500 square inches. To find the approximate length of each side, we take the square root of 1,500.

Calculating the square root of 1,500 gives us approximately 38.73 inches.

Since we are looking for an approximate length, we can round this number to the nearest whole number, which is 39 inches.

Therefore, the answer is 39 inches.
