Answer:
201.06 square centimeters.
Explanation:
The formula for finding the area of a circle is:
[tex]\text{Area}=\pi r^2[/tex]Given that the diameter = 16 cm
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Radius,r}=\text{Diameter}\div2 \\ =16\div2 \\ r=8\operatorname{cm} \end{gathered}[/tex]Next, substitute r=8cm into the formula for area.
[tex]\begin{gathered} A=\pi\times8^2 \\ =64\pi \\ =201.06\operatorname{cm}^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]The area of the circle is 201.06 square centimeters.
