SOLUTION
Given the question in the image, the following are the solution steps to answer the question.
STEP 1: Write the given parameters
![\begin{gathered} r=12ft,\pi=\pi \\ \text{Area}=\pi r^2 \end{gathered}](https://img.qammunity.org/2023/formulas/mathematics/college/b4732q086jmnwzeq6uhi4833l0ivpzfwj8.png)
STEP 2: Calculate the area of the given circle of radius 12ft
![\begin{gathered} \text{Area}=\pi r^2 \\ By\text{ substitution,} \\ \text{Area}=\pi*12^2^{} \\ \text{Area}=\pi*144 \\ \text{Area}=144\pi \end{gathered}](https://img.qammunity.org/2023/formulas/mathematics/college/scx10dxxebq1qd4yv8nzymisf213ituc8u.png)
Hence, the area of the circle in terms of pi is:
![\text{Area}=144\pi ft^2](https://img.qammunity.org/2023/formulas/mathematics/college/e2o1g33ahdiu1ce84pp5imjem1a4o600xe.png)
