Answer :

Area of a circle = πr^2
Circumfrance of a circle = 2πr or πd
If 15 ft is the circumfrance, then
15 ft = 2πr
So, 15/2π = r
Now that r is known, just plug it in/substitute it in to the formula for the circle.
A = (π)(15/2π)(15/2π)
A = 225/4π = 56.25π

Use a calculator.
area= r^2 x pi pi= 3.14 C= 2 r x pi 15= 2r x 3.14 15/3.14= 2r 4.78= 2r 2,39 = r A= 2.39 x 2.39 x 3.14= A= 17.94 square feet Hope this helps
