Answer:
1. area would be 225π cm² or 706.85 sq
2. 12.57m²
3. 21.98 m
Step-by-step explanation:
1. The area of a circle is pi times the radius squared, radius is twice of diameter so if the diameter is 30 cm then the radius is 15cm.
2. A = π r 2 = π · 22 ≈ 12.56637 m²
3. c = 2 x 3.5 x 3.14 = 21.98 m
