Answer:

Option C (4096π in²)

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the circle = 256π in²

We know that [tex]Area=\pi r^{2}[/tex] , where r = radius of the circle

So,

[tex]256\pi = \pi r^{2}[/tex]

Cancelling π from both the sides,

[tex]=> r^{2} = 256[/tex]

[tex]=> r = \sqrt{256} = 16[/tex]

The radius of the circle = 16 in.

When the radius is multiplied with 4 , new radius = 16×4 = 64 in.

New Area = [tex]\pi (64)^{2} =4096\pi \: in^{2}[/tex]
