\boxed {\boxed {\text{Area of a circle = } \pi r^2}}

Given area, find radius:


\pi r^2 = 64\pi


r^2 = 64


r = 8 \text { in}

Radius of the circular window in the living room = 8 + 4 = 12 in



\boxed {\boxed {\text{Circumference of a circle = } 2\pi r}}


\text{circumference = } 2 * 3.14 * 12


\text{circumference = } 75.36 \text { in}


\boxed {\boxed {\text{Answer: Circumference = 75.36 in}}}
