An individual head of a sprinkler system covers a circular area of grass with a radius of 25 feet. The yard has 3 sprinkler heads that each cover a circular area with no overlap. What is the approximate total area that will be watered?

Respuesta :

The area of one watered circle will be
.. A = π*r^2 = π*(25 ft)^2 = 625π ft^2

The area of 3 such circles will be
.. 3A = 3*625π ft^2 = 1875π ft^2
.. ≈ 5890 ft^2
