To answer this question, we need to find the area of a circle.

To find the area of a circle, we will use the following equation:

, where  is the radius.

We are given the diameter of the circle, which is . To find the radius of a circle, we divide the diameter by two. So, for this data:

So, our radius is . 

We can now plug our radius into our equation for the area of a circle:

The answer asks us what the area is to the nearest square foot. Therefore, we must round our answer to the nearest whole number. To round, we will round up if the digit right before your desired place value is 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9, and we will round down if it is 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4. Because we want the nearest square foot, we will look at the tenths place to aid in our rounding. Because there is a 1 in the tenths place, we will round down. So:

Therefore, our answer is .

Like any circle, a clock contains a total of . Because the clock face is divided into  equal parts, we can find the number of degrees between each number by doing . At 5:00 the hour hand will be at 5 and the minute hand will be at 12. Using what we just figured out, we can see that there is an angle of  between the two hands. We are looking for the larger angle, however, so we must now do . 

To find the distance between the clock hands, first find the angle between the clock hands and use that as your central angle to find the porportion of the circumference.
The angle between the hands is :

To start, we must calculate the circumference along the clock face. Since we are required to leave  in our answer, this is as easy as following our equation for circumference:

Next, we must figure out the positions of the hands. At , the clock's minute hand would be exactly on the , and the hour hand would be  of the way between the  and the . Therefore, the total distance  in terms of hour markings is .

To find the distance between adjacent numbers, divide the circumference by :

, where  is the distance in inches between adjacent hours on the clock face.

Finally, multiply this distance by the number of hours between the hands.

.

Thus, the hands are   apart.

To start, we must calculate the circumference along the clock face. Since we are required to leave  in our answer, this is as easy as following our equation for circumference:

Next, we must figure out the positions of the hands. For this problem, the clock has 24 evenly spaced numbers instead of 12, so we must cut the distance between each number mark in half compared to a normal clock face.  At , the clock's minute hand would be exactly on the , and the hour hand would be  of the way between the  and the (remember, there are still only seconds in a minute even on a 24-hour clock. Therefore, the total distance  in terms of hour markings is .

To find the distance between adjacent numbers, divide the circumference by :

, where  is the distance in feet between adjacent hours on the clock face.

Finally, multiply this distance by the number of hours between the hands.

.

Thus, the hands are  feet apart.

To find the distance, first you need to find circumference. Thus,

Then, multiply the fraction of the clock they cover. Thus,
