Weegy: An earthquake was felt throughout a circular area of 1,808.64 square miles. 24 Miles was the radius of the circular area.
Solution:
The area of a circle is given by: A = (pi)(r^2)
The problem gives the area as: 1,808.64 sq. mi. [
So, (pi)(r^2) = 1,808.64
Solve for r.
Divide both sides by pi (3.14) r^2 = 1.808.64/3.14 r^2 = 576 Take the square root of both sides. r = 24 Miles. ]
