Standard CDs have a diameter of 120 mm; that would be a radius of 60 mm. Since area is calculated as the value of pi (3.1416) times the square of the radius, we calculate as follows: Area A = pi X r2 = 3.1416 X 60 mm X 60 mm = 3.1416 X 3600 mm2 = 11,309.76 mm2. That value translates to 113.0976 square centimeters or 17.5301631 square inches. The area just calculated includes the hole. If you wish the hole excluded, so you have just the surface area of the disk, subtract the area of the hole, which has a diameter of 15 mm. The hole, with a radius of 7.5 mm, has an area of 176.715 mm2. Subtracting that from the area of a circle with a 120 mm diameter (11,309.76 mm2), we get a true surface area of 11,133.045 mm2 or 17.2562543 in2.
