A table with a round top is cut in half so that it can be used against a wall. After it is cut, the edge along the wall is 6 feet .What is the area A of the table after it is cut in half ?
Accepted Solution
A:
The diameter is 6 feet, so the radius is 3 feet. The formula to solve for the areas of a circle is A = πr^2 So, A = (3.14)(3^2) A = 28.26 Since the table is cut in half, divide the total answer by 2 A = 14.13
