Choice A is the correct answer. Distance from origin $> 3$.

1. Distance Formula: $\sqrt{x^2 + y^2} > 3$
2. Square both sides: $x^2 + y^2 > 9$

?�� Strategic Tip:$<$ is inside, $>$ is outside.

Choice B is incorrect because it represents the inside. Choice C is incorrect because it includes the boundary (not strictly outside). Choice D is incorrect because it represents a half-plane, not a circle.
