B. 100 square feet

C. 254.34 square feet

D. 803 square feet

Answer 1

Option C, 254.34 square feet

Explanation:

Area of a circle formula: A = πr^2

Step 1: Find the radius

Since they give us the diameter, we need to find the radius.

18/2

9 = radius

Step 2: Plug into the formula

A = π(9)^2

A = 81π

A = 254.34 square feet

Answer: Option C, 254.34 square feet
