Solve. Find the area of a large pizza that has a diameter of 16 inches.

Take what you need to find:

 

- The area of the pizza

 

 

Take what you know:

 

- You got a delicious meat lovers pizza

 

- It has a diameter of 16 inches

 

- Area = (pi)(radius)^2

 

Work:

 

- I don't have the radius of the pizza but I do have the diameter, the diameter is twice the length of the radius.

 

- Radius = 8 inches.

 

- Just gonna plug in... (pi)(8in)^2 = Area

 

My Answer:

 

- The yummy pizza's EXACT area is 64(pi) inches squared
