How to find an Area of a Circle



The area of a circle is a simple shape of Euclidean geometry consisting of those points in a plane which are equidistant from a given point called the center. The common distance of the points of a circle from its center is called its radius.



Finding area of a circle

Example: 1Find the area of the circle with radius 14 meter
Solution:
We know the formula for finding the area of the circle = r2
Here r = 14 meter, = 3.14, substitute r and value in the above formula we get
Area = 3.14 * 142
Area = 3.14 *14*14
Simplify the above we get
Area = 615.44 meter square
Therefore the area of the circle is 615.44 meter 2
