The formula for the circumference of a circle is C = 2πr, where r is the radius of the circle.

Given that the circumference is 22π inches, we can set up the equation:
22π = 2πr
Divide both sides by 2π to solve for r:
r = 11 inches

The formula for the area of a circle is A = πr^2. Substituting the radius we found, we get:
A = π(11)^2
A = π(121)
A = 121π

Substitute 3.14 for π and calculate the area:
A = 121(3.14)
A = 379.94 in^2

Therefore, the area of the circle is approximately 379.94 square inches.
