Diameter: 110 inches
Area: #3025pi# inches squared
Circumference: #110pi# inches

Explanation:

Diameter: #2r rarr# #r# represents the radius

#55*2=110 rarr# 110 inches would be the diameter

Area: #pir^2#

#55^2pi=3025pi rarr# #3025pi# would be the area

Circumference: #2pir# or #2d rarr# #d# represents the diameter

#110*pi=110pi#

If you are using an approximation for #pi#, such as 3.14, 3.14159 or #22/7#, multiply 3025 and 110 by the approximations instead of leaving it in terms of #pi#.
