The radius of a pizza is 12cm, calculate the area of the pizza in terms of pi

To calculate the answer to this question we need to know the formula for the area of the circle. The area of a circle is:

A = Pi x r^2

The value of r is given in the question; r = 12. We then just plug this value into the equation, resulting in:

A = Pi x 12^2

12^2 is equal to 144 so therefore the answer to the question is 144(Pi).
