Hello!

ANSWERS:

The area of the circle is 200.98 ft^2.

The circumference of the circle is 50.24 feet.
_____________________________

EXPLANATION:

We must use formulas to find the area and circumference of a circle.

A = pi Γ— r^2

C = 2 Γ— pi Γ— r

-------------------------------------------------------

We know that pi equals approximately 3.14 and the radius of the circle is 8 feet. That is all we'll need to find the area and circumference of the circle.

-------------------------------------------------------

AREA:

A = pi Γ— r^2

A = 3.14 Γ— 8^2

A = 3.14 Γ— 64

A = 200.98 feet^2

_____________________________

CIRCUMFERENCE:

C = 2 Γ— pi Γ— r

C = 2 Γ— 3.14 Γ— 8

C = 6.28 Γ— 8

C = 50.24 feet
