the wheel?

49.7 cm?
198.9 cm?

Answer:

49.7 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Although it is hidden a bit, we are actually given the circumference of the circle, which is 25 cm.

We know that C = 2Ï€r, so we can substitute variables to find the radius (r).

25 = 2Ï€r

r = 25/(2Ï€)

r = 3.9788... cm

The area of a circle is A = π[tex]r^{2}[/tex], so:

A = π [tex]3.9788^{2}[/tex]

A = 49.7359... [tex]cm^{2}[/tex]

A ≈ 49.7 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex]
