A circular flower garden has an area of about 314 m2. A sprinkler at the center of the garden can cover an area that has a radius of 12 m. Will the sprinkler water the entire garden? (Take π = 3.14)
It is given in the question that,
Area of circular flower garden = 314 m2
We know that,
Area of the circle = πr2
314 = 3.14 × r2
r2 = 314/3.14
r2 = 100
r = 10 m
Since, the radius of garden is less than radius of sprinkle
i.e. Area of the garden will be less than the area of sprinkle.
So, the sprinkler can easily water the whole garden.
