We have to use the formula of the area of a circle


A=\pi(r)^2

Where A = 113.04, let's replace this value and solve for r


\begin{gathered} 113.04=\pi(r)^2 \\ r^2=(113.04)/(\pi)\approx36 \\ r=\sqrt[]{36}=6 \end{gathered}

The radius of the circle is 6 feet long.

We know that the diameter is double the radius. So,


d=2r=2\cdot6=12Hence, the diameter of the circle is 12 feet.
