Kyra is finding the area of the circle. She cuts the circle into equal sectors and arranges them into the shape of a parallelogram. A circle is cut into 8 equal sections. The sections are arranged into the shape of a parallelogram with a base of 9.42 inches and height of 3 inches. Which expression represents the approximate area of the circle in square inches? 9.42 times 3 9.42 times 3 squared 9.42 times 6 9.42 times 6 squared]

Answer:

The expression that represents the approximate area of the circle in square inches is;

9.42 times 3

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we have;

The shape of the figure which Kyra is finding the area for = A circle;

The number of equal pieces Kyra cuts the shape into = 8 equal sectors

The shape the sectors are arranged into = A parallelogram

The base of the parallelogram = 9.42 inches

The height of the parallelogram = 3 inches

Therefore, the area of the approximate parallelogram formed ≈  The area of the circle

The area of a parallelogram = The base × The height

∴ The area of the approximate parallelogram formed = 9.42 × 3 ≈ The area of the circle

The approximate area of the circle = 9.42 × 3 square inches.
