If C=12π, what is the area of the circle? (1 point) Responses 24π 24 pi 36π 36 pi 144π 144 pi 12π
The formula for the area of a circle is A = πr^2, where r is the radius of the circle. Since C = 2πr, we can find the radius by dividing C by 2π:
r = C / 2π
r = 12π / 2π
r = 6
Now we can plug the radius back into the area formula to find the area:
A = πr^2
A = π(6)^2
A = π(36)
A = 36π
Therefore, the area of the circle is 36π.
