A circular mirror has a diameter of 22 inches. Which measurement is closest to the area of the mirror in square inches

379.94 square inches, or 379.94 in².

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle is π r². The diameter of the circle is listed as 22 inches, and the radius, or "r", is equal to half of the diameter. So, half of 22 is 11.

Since the formula says r², 11 needs to be squared, or multiplied once by itself.  11 x 11 = 121, so the last part of the equation is to multiply 121 by π. Because pi is an irrational number that never ends, it is commonly accepted to use 3.14, or the first three digits of pi, as the value of pi in an equation.

With that, 121 x 3.14 = 379.94, giving a final answer of 379.94 in².
