Cut down the middle, one half of the ring may look like this:
The red circles are the places where it was cut. The diameter of those red circles is .
If by cross section they mean the area of just one of those circles, it is
because the are of a circle is and the radius (half the diameter) is .
If by cross section they mean the area of both of those circles, it is
.
The approximate answers are
and or I would round those numbers as desired.
If an exact answer is required, I would write the results as
and
