Answer: B. 254.34 cm^2
Explanation:
The area of a circle is pi times the radius squared.
Using the diameter we have to find the radius.
The diameter is two times the radius meaning that the radius is half the diameter.
18/ 2 = 9
The radius will be 9 cm
Now using the formula v= pi * r^2 , input the value for pie and the radius and solve for v the volume
v = 3.14 * 9^2
v= 3.14 * 81
v = 254.34 cm^2
