The answer is 28.2457


The formula to find the circumference is
2 πr. And the area formula is πr^2

To get the radius, you have to do

18.84/π

Which will result in 5.9969582557 as the diameter.

Then you do

5.9969582557/2

To get the radius of 2.99847912785.

Then you square it

2.99847912785^2

To get

8.990877080152097

Multiply that by Pi to get 28.2457
