Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The area (\(A\)) of a circle is given by the formula:
\[ A = \pi r^2 \]
where \( r \) is the radius of the circle.
For a circle with a radius of \( 7 \) cm, the area can be calculated as follows:
\[ A = \pi \times (7)^2 \]
\[ A = 49\pi \, \text{cm}^2 \]
So, the area of the circle is \( 49\pi \, \text{cm}^2 \). If you need a numerical approximation, you can use the value of \( \pi \) (pi), which is approximately \( 3.14159 \).
Therefore, the approximate area is \( 49 \times 3.14159 \approx 153.938 \, \text{cm}^2 \).
