Frage 81

A circle has a radius of 10 centimetres, and π is to be taken as exactly 3.14. Select all the statements that are true about the area of this circle.

Its area is 314 square centimetres.Richtige Antwort
Its area is 62.8 square centimetres.
Its area is 314 centimetres.
Its area has to be reported in square units rather than plain centimetres, because two lengths were multiplied.Richtige Antwort

Erklärung

Squaring the 10 gives 100, and 3.14 lots of 100 measure the surface enclosed. The value 62.8 comes from the rule for the way round the edge, which multiplies by the width instead of by the radius times itself, and a boundary length answers a different question entirely.
