The area of a circle is given by the formula A = πr^2, where r is the radius of the circle. Since C = 2πr, we can rearrange this equation to solve for r: r = C / 2π.

In this case, C = 12π, so r = 12π / 2π = 6.

Now, we can plug the radius back into the formula for the area of a circle: A = π(6)^2 = 36π.

Therefore, the area of the circle is 36π.
