To find the area of a circle, multiply the radius of the circle (the distance from the center to the edge) by the radius of the circle by 3.14 (π). Yes, that is right — you want to multiple the radius of the circle by itself. The diameter is the distance from one edge of a circle, through the center point, to the opposite edge, or twice the radius.
1. What is the area (in acres) of a circular field with a diameter of 1,320 ft.?
2. What is the area (in acres) of a circular field with a diameter of 2,640 ft.?
3. What is the area (in acres) of a circular field with a diameter of 3,000 ft. Answers:
1. What is the area (in acres) of a circular field with a diameter of 1,320 ft.?
1,320 = radius of 660 ft.
2
3.14 x 660 ft x 660 ft = 1,367,784 sq ft = 31.4 acres
43,560 sq ft per acre 43,560 sq ft per acre
2. What is the area (in acres) of a circular field with a diameter of 2,640 ft.?
2,640 = radius of 1,320 ft.
2
3.14 x 1,320 ft x 1,320 ft = 5,471,136 sq ft = 125.6 acres
43,560 sq ft per acre 43,560 sq ft per acre
3. What is the area (in acres) of a circular field with a diameter of 3,000 ft.?
3,000 = radius of 1,500 ft.
2
3.14 x 1,500 ft x 1,500 ft = 7,065,000 sq ft = 162 acres
