A = 60.79 m²We're asked to find the area of a circle, given that its diameter is 8.8 yd.The first step is to divide the diameter by 2:[tex]\sf 8.8 \div2=4.4[/tex]Now, apply the formula for the area of a circle:→ [tex]\sf A=\pi r^2[/tex]Substitute the value for r, and use 3.14 for pi:→ [tex]\sf A=3.14\times4.4^2[/tex]→ [tex]\sf A=3.14\times19.36[/tex]→ [tex]\sf A=60.79\:m^2[/tex]
