Answer: 615.44 cm^2

Explanation:

Formula for the area of a circle is:
A=\pi r^2

We need to find the radius using our circumference formula and solving for r;


Formula: C=2\pi r


r=(C)/(2\pi)


r=(87.92)/(2(3.14)) \\r=14cm

Now that we've found the radius, replace it into the formula for the area.


A=\pi r^2\\A= (3.14)(14)^2\\A=615.44cm^2
