If a circular plate has a diameter of 9 inches. what is the area of the plate

 The area of the circular plate is:  " 63.59 in² " .
______________________________________________________
Note:
______________________________________________

diameter, "d" = 9 in. (given). 

radius, "r" = "d/ 2 " = "(9 inches) / 2 " = 4.5 in. 
______________________________________________

Area of a circle, "A" :

A =  * r²  ; 

in which:   "A = Area of circle ("plate"); in units of "square inches"; or "in² " ;
 
                  " = 3.14 " {approximation we shall use} ;  

                  "r = radius = 4.5 in." ;
________________________________________________________
Plug in our known values to solve for the area, "A" :

A = (3.14) * (4.5 in)² ;

A = (3.14) * (4.5)² * (in²) ; 
 
A = (3.14) * (4.5) * (4.5) * (in²) ; 

A = 63.585 in² ; round to:  " 63.59 in² " .

Ibelieve 4mn because it’s like you’re combining them

Gotta be d the music of previous eras
