Question
Find the area of the circle. Use 3.15 (pi) and round your answer to the nearest hundredth
### Calculating the Area of a Circle

To find the area of the circle, use the following formula:

\[ \text{Area} = \pi r^2 \]

where:
- \(\pi\) (pi) is a constant approximately equal to 3.14.
- \(r\) is the radius of the circle.

In this particular problem, the radius (\(r\)) is given as 14 meters.

So,

\[ \text{Area} = 3.14 \times (14)^2 \]

First, calculate \(14^2\):

\[ 14^2 = 196 \]

Then, multiply by \(\pi \):

\[ \text{Area} = 3.14 \times 196 \]

\[ \text{Area} = 615.44 \, \text{m}^2 \]

The final area of the circle is 615.44 square meters, rounded to the nearest hundredth.

**Diagram Explanation:**
- The diagram shows a circle.
- The radius of the circle, marked as \(r\), is 14 meters.
  
Fill in the final answer in the provided space on the educational website interface:

\[ \boxed{615.44 \, \text{m}^2} \]
