Answer:

20.25 m²

Explanation:

the area (A) and circumference (C) of a circle are calculated using the formulae

C = 2πr and A = πr² ( where r is the radius )

calculate the radius using the formula for circumference

2πr = 9π ( divide both sides by 2π )

r =
(9\pi )/(2\pi ) =
(9)/(2) = 4.5, hence

A = π × 4.5² = 20.25π m²
