Answer:

The radius is
r=10\ in and the diameter is
D=20\ in

Explanation:

we know that

The area of the circle is equal to


A=\pi r^(2)

In this problem we have


A=314\ in^(2)

substitute and solve for r

assume


\pi =3.14


314=(3.14)r^(2)


r^(2)=314/3.14


r^(2)=100


r=10\ in

Find the diameter


D=2r


D=2(10)=20\ in
