STEP 1: find radius $ r $
To find radius $ r $ use formula:
$$ d = 2 \cdot r $$After substituting $ d = 6 $ we have:
$$ 6 = 2 \cdot r $$ $$ r = \dfrac{ 6 }{ 2 } $$ $$ r = 3 $$STEP 2: find area $ A $
To find area $ A $ use formula:
$$ A = r^2 \cdot \pi $$After substituting $ r = 3 $ we have:
$$ A = 3^2 \cdot \pi $$ $$ A = 9 \cdot \pi $$
