What is the area of the table after it is cut in half ?
Give your answer in terms of pi.
i will vote you brainlyest and give you 5/5 raiting

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{9\pi}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The edge along the wall will be Diameter. So,

$d = 2r \: where \: r \: is \: radius$

d=2r

Therefore, 2r=6 ==> r=3

The area removed earlier was of semicircle so,

Area of a semicirclecircle:

$\pi{r}^{2} \div 2$

We know r=3. Putting in value we get:

3²π/2

= $\frac{9\pi}{2}$
