Rachel is frosting the top of two cakes and wants to know which cake will require more frosting. one cake is round with a diameter of 8 inches. the other cake is square with a length of 9 inches. the top of which cake has a larger area? how much larger is it? fast i need this you

The square cake is larger by 31 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

A round cake has a circular area on top.

We need to find the radius

d= 2r

8 = 2r

r=4

The area of the circle is pi r^2

A = 3.14 * 4^2

A = 3.14 *16

   = 50.24

The area of the square cake is

A =s^2

A = 9^2

A = 81

The square cake is larger

The difference is Asquare - A round

81 -50.24

30.76

Which is close to 31 in ^2
