Answer:


\huge{ \boxed{ \sf{12.57 \: {cm}^(2)}}}

Explanation:


\star Circumference of a circle = 12.56 cm

First, finding the radius of a circle ( r ) :


\boxed{ \sf{Circumference \: of \: a \: circle = 2\pi \: r}}


\mapsto{ \sf{12.56 = 2 \: ∗ \: (22)/(7) \: ∗ \: r}}


\mapsto{ \sf{12.56 = 6.28 \: ∗ \: r}}


\mapsto{ \sf{6.28r = 12.56}}


\mapsto{ \sf{ (6.28r)/(6.28) = (12.56)/(6.28)}}


\mapsto{ \sf{r = 2 \: cm}}

The radius of a circle = 2 cm

Now, finding the area of a circle having radius of 2 cm :


\boxed{ \sf{Area \: of \: a \: circle \: = \: \pi \: {r}^(2) }}


\mapsto{ \sf{ Area \: of \: a \: circle = (22)/(7) \: ∗ \: {(2)}^(2) }}


\mapsto{ \sf{Area \: of \: a \: circle = (22)/(7) ∗ \: 4}}


\mapsto{ \sf{Area \: of \: a \: circle = 12.57\: {cm}^(2) }}

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D
