I was a combat engineer in the US Army during the 1990's.

Yes, mines come in a variety of sizes. The size is determined by the purpose and the amount of explosives required to do the job.

On the small end, 2"-3" diameter anti-personnel mines are fairly common. The US M14 Anti-Personnel mine is 2.2" (56mm) in diameter and 1.5" (40 mm) tall.

At the high end, Anti-Tank mines are sized to damage large vehicles. They have high pressure triggers to try and minimize the risk that they will go off from something other than a vehicle. 12" to 18" in diameter is not an uncommon size.

Given the information in the question, there is no need for any inequality. the flat surface can be described as an equality. Outer diameter = one and a half inches => outer radius = 0.75 inches. Inner diameter = three fourths inches => inner radius = 0.375 inches. Area = pi*(0.752 - 0.3752) square inches. So one possible set of inequalities is 0 < area < 1,000,000,000 sq inches!
