Question #N217
A circle has a radius of 5 cm. What is the area of the circle in terms of pi?
A. 5\pi
B. 10\pi
C. 25\pi
D. 100\pi
Correct Answer is: C
The area of a circle is given by the formula \(A = \pi r^2\), where \(r\) is the radius. Substituting 5 for \(r\) gives us \(A = \pi (5)^2\) = 25\pi.
