For this exercise you need to remember that the circumference of a circle can be calculated with this formula:


C=2\pi r

Where "r" is the radius of the circle.

In this case, you know that the circumference of the circle is:


C=21.2ft

Then, you can substitute this value into the formula and solve for "r". This is:


\begin{gathered} C=2\pi r \\ 21.2ft=2\pi r \\ \\ (21.2ft)/(2\pi)=r \\ \\ r\approx3.37ft \end{gathered}

You can find the diameter by multiplying the radius by 2. Then, this is:


\begin{gathered} d=(2)(3.37ft) \\ d\approx6.74ft \end{gathered}

The answers are:


\begin{gathered} d\approx6.74ft \\ r\approx3.37ft \end{gathered}
