To find the area of a circle, we can use the formula:
Area = π × r²
where r is the radius of the circle.
First, we need to determine the radius from the diameter. The radius is half of the diameter. In this case:
Diameter = 14 meters
So,
Radius (r) = Diameter / 2 = 14 meters / 2 = 7 meters
Now, we can plug the radius into the area formula:
Area = π × (7 meters)²
Calculating that gives:
Area = π × 49 square meters
Using the value of π (approximately 3.14), we get:
Area ≈ 3.14 × 49 = 153.86 square meters
Thus, the area of Fiona’s circle is approximately 153.86 square meters.
