Area of a Circle

The area of a circle represents the amount of space inside it. To find this, you need two key measurements: the radius (the distance from the center to the edge) or the diameter (the full width across the circle). The most common formula is Area = π × radius², where π (pi) is approximately 3.1416. This means you multiply pi by the radius multiplied by itself. The larger the radius, the more space the circle covers. Understanding the area helps in calculating space for various applications, like designing circular tables, floors, or understanding coverage areas.
