Given:
Radius of the circle, r = 5 cm
Let's find the area of the circle.
To find the area of the circle, apply the formula:
[tex]\text{Area}=\pi r^2[/tex]Thus, we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Area}=\pi\ast5^2 \\ \\ \text{Area}=\pi\ast25 \\ \\ \text{Area}=25\pi\operatorname{cm}^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the exact area of the circle is 25π square centimeters
ANSWER:
[tex]25\pi\operatorname{cm}^2[/tex]
