minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink9•11 days agoWhy would i calculate r? I need only the area. See? Why would I waste my time for an extra calculation.
minus-squarestebolinkfedilink8•edit-210 days agoJust do it in your head? The diameter is 5.62, so the area is π*2.81², which is more efficient to type in your calculator than π*5.62²/4. You’re the one wasting time.

Life is too short to waste for such things.
I use the measure tool in solidworks
