To solve this problem, we must plug in our given values into the formula for the area of a circle: A = πr^2. Because we don't have the radius given to us in this problem, we must find it using what we are given, the diameter, using the equation below:

2r = d

If we plug in the diameter given, we get:

2r = 4.1 m

To solve we must divide both sides of the equation by 2, so that we can get the variable r alone on the left side of the equation.

r = 2.05 m

Now, we can plug in this radius value into our original equation for the area of a circle:

Area = πr^2

A = π(2.05 m)^2

To solve this problem, we must square the value inside the parentheses first.

A = 4.2025π m²

Therefore, your answer is 4.2025π m², because the question asks for the answer in terms of pi (no more simplification is necessary).

Hope this helps!
