-----------
At 10": Area = pi*10*10
A = 100*pi
At 12": Area = pi*12*12
A = 144*pi
The increase is 44*pi
44*pi = 138.23 sq inches

.
Area of a circle is (pi)r^2
.
"area of increased radius circle" - "area of original circle"
.
(pi)(10+2)^2 - (pi)(10)^2
(pi)(12)^2 - (pi)(10)^2
pi ((12)^2 - (10)^2)
pi (144 - 100)
pi (44)
(3.14)(44)
138.16 sq inches
