Answer:
36\pi\ m^2

Explanation:

We know that the volume of cylinder is given by :-


\text{Volume}=\pi r^2 h, where r is radius and h is height of cylinder.

Since , The volume of clay used to build a cylindrical pillar with a height of 9 centimeters is 324π cubic centimeters.


\Rightarrow\ 324\pi=\pi r^2(9)\\\\\Rightarrow\ \pi r^2=36\pi

Also, the area of base is given by :-


\text{Area}=\pi r^2\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{Area}=36\pi\ m^2

Therefore, the area of the base of the pillar=
36\pi\ m^2
