Answer: The radius of the garden is half the diameter, which is 58/2 = 29 meters. The area of the garden is πr², so:

Area = πr² = 3.14 x 29² = 2,645.86 square meters

Since Sandra planted equal regions of each vegetable, she planted 1/5 of the garden with each vegetable. So the area of the garden with carrots is:

Area with carrots = (1/5) x 2,645.86 = 529.17 square meters

Therefore, the area of Sandra's garden that has carrots is approximately 529.17 square meters.
