Answer:
A = 82.53 in²
Step-by-step explanation:
We use the circumference equation C = 2πr and the area equation A = πr².
Using the first equation and the given circumference (32 in), we find the radius of the circle, and then use this result to find the area of the circle.
C 32 in
C = 2πr becomes r = ----------- and here r = ---------- = 5.10 in
2π 6.28
Then the area of the circle is A = πr², which here is A = 3.14(5.10 in)², which, when rounded off to two decimal places, is A = 82.53 in²
