GIven:

Area of the circle = 25 in^2

Find for r.

Formula for the Area of the Circle:

A=πr^2

r = ( A/π )^½

Solution:
In order to find for r, we simply need to substitute the value of A to the formula for r, in terms of A.

r = ( A/π )^½

r = ( 25 in^2/π )^½

r = (7.96 in^2)^½

r = 2.82 in

Final answer:

r = 2.82 in
