Apaper airplane can be made out of two different pieces of paper: a circular piece 10 inches wide and a square piece 11 inches wide. which piece of paper will provide the greater area for flight?

Compare the areas of the 2 different pieces of paper.

For the circle, the area is A=pi * r^2, which works out to A = pi(5 inches)^2.

For the square, the area is A = s^2, where is the side length, which here is 11 inches.

Finish these calculations, and then compare your two areas.  Which is the larger?

A= the square root of 3“if letters are anything like people, they’re all equal and deserve to be treated equally.”
