Math Problem Statement
The radius of a circle is 10.4 ft. Find the circumference to the nearest tenth.
Solution
To find the circumference of a circle, we use the formula:
Where:
- is the circumference
- is the radius
- is approximately 3.1416
Given that the radius ft, we can substitute this value into the formula:
So, the circumference of the circle is approximately 65.3 feet.
Would you like more details on this formula or how to apply it in different situations?
Here are 5 related questions you might find interesting:
- How does changing the radius affect the circumference of a circle?
- What would be the area of this circle with a radius of 10.4 ft?
- How do you calculate the area if you are only given the circumference?
- How do you estimate π to different levels of precision (e.g., using 3.14, 22/7, etc.)?
- What would happen to the circumference if the radius was doubled?
Tip: When calculating circumference or area, always be sure to keep track of the units used (in this case, feet) to ensure your final answer is in the correct measurement.
