Answer:

See below.

Explanation:

We are asked for the diameter, radius, and area of a circle.

We are given the Circumference.

We should know that;


Circumference = (diameter)\pi


Circumference = 24\pi (Exact)

This means that the Diameter is 24.

The Radius is
(1)/(2) of the Diameter.

This means that the Radius is 12.

The area of a circle is represented as;


Area = \pi(radius)^2

We have the requirements to find the area, with the value of the radius.

Solve for the area;


Area = \pi(12)^2


Area = 144 \pi (Exact)


Area = about \ 452.39. (Approx.)
