    254.34 m^2

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To know the amount of land that needs to be cleared, we must calculate the area that this land would occupy.

    We know that the area would be determined by:

    A = pi * r ^ 2

    the radius is half the diameter:

    r = d / 2 = 18/2

    r = 9

    the radius equals 9 feet, replacing:

    A = 3.14 * 9 ^ 2

    A = 254.34

    Therefore, an equivalent amount of land 254.34 square meters would have to be cleared so that it can be built
