Answer:
200.96 in.
Step-by-step explanation:
**THE PRIZE WHEEL IS THE SHAPE OF A CIRCLE.**
The formula for area of a circle is: πr² (3.14 × radius × radius).
**3.14 IS COMMONLY USED FOR PI**
According to the word problem, the prize wheel has a radius of 8.
πr² (3.14 × radius × radius)
π8² (3.14 × 8 × 8) = 200.96
Therefore, the area of the prize wheel is 200.96 in.
Answer:
201.06in^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Use area formula which is pi(r)^2
