Area of the Circular Path Surrounding a Garden

Hard Preparing For Higher Math Geometry

A circular garden has a diameter of 12 meters. Surrounding the garden is a path that is 3 meters wide. To find the area of just the path, calculate the area of the larger circle (which includes both the garden and the path) and then subtract the area of the garden from it.

Use the formula for the area of a circle, which is given by:

$$A = oldsymbol{rac{1}{4} imes ext{diameter}^2 imes oldsymbol{ ext{π}}}$$

$$oldsymbol{75 ext{ m}^2}$$

$$oldsymbol{113 ext{ m}^2}$$

$$oldsymbol{54 ext{ m}^2}$$

$$oldsymbol{9 ext{ m}^2}$$
