Answer:

63.59 ft²

Explanation:

Area of circle

  • πr² or πd²/4 [because radius = diameter/2]
  • 3.14 x (9)² / 4
  • 3.14 x 81/4
  • 3.14 x 20.25
  • 63.59 ft² (nearest hundredth)

\huge\underline{\red{A}\blue{n}\pink{s}\purple{w}\orange{e}\green{r} -}

  • Given - a circle with diameter = 9 ft

  • To find - area of the given circle

Formula -


\qquad\quad\bold\pink{area \: of \: circle= \pi \: r {}^(2) }

now , we observe that we're not provided with the radius of the circle ! hence , let's find the radius of the circle now ~


\qquad\quad{radius = (diameter)/(2) } \\ \\ \longrightarrow \: radius = (9)/(2) = 4.5 \: ft

substituting the value of radius in the formula used to calculate area -


area = \pi \: r {}^(2) \\ \\ \longrightarrow \: (22)/(7) * 4.5 * 4.5 \\ \\ \longrightarrow \: (445.5)/(7) \\ \\ \longrightarrow \: 63.6 \: ft {}^(2) \: (approx.)

hope helpful ~
