Solution

To calculate the area of a circle, we use the formula: Area = πr², where r is the radius of the circle.

Step 1: Find the radius. The diameter of the ring is 13.6 meters, so the radius (which is half the diameter) is 13.6 / 2 = 6.8 meters.

Step 2: Substitute the radius into the formula. Area = π * (6.8)².

Step 3: Calculate the area. Area = π * 46.24 = approximately 145.267 square meters.

So, the area of the ring is approximately 145.267 square meters.
