The area of a circle with radius 3 is what?

Area of a circle is given by A = π r^2. With radius 3, A = π × 3^2 = 9π. So the exact area is 9π (about 28.27 square units). The other options miss the π factor or misapply r^2: 3π would require r^2 = 3, 6π would require r^2 = 6, and 9 ignores π altogether.
