Area of the Path Around a Garden

Very Easy Additional Topics In Math Geometry

A circular garden has a radius of 4 meters. A path of width 1 meter is built around the garden. What is the area of the path?

To find the area of the path, first calculate the area of the entire circle including the path.

Use the formula for the area of a circle: $$A = ext{π}r^2$$, where $$r$$ is the radius.

Then, subtract the area of the garden from the area of the larger circle that includes the path.
