Answer: 63.61725124

Step-by-step explanation:

area = pi x r^2

diameter is double the radius, labeled r in the formula.

9/2 = 4.5

r = 4.5

area = pi x 4.5^2

area = 63.61725124 or 81/4pi

63.585 inches^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a circle is...

[tex]A=\pi r^2[/tex]

We need the radius for this, but we have the diameter. Since radius is half of the diameter, we know the radius will be 4.5. We can plug that in.

[tex]A=3.14*4.5*4.5[/tex]

[tex]A=[/tex]

63.585 inches^2
