area of a circle = πr², where r = the radius of the circle

We can rearrange the formula to solve for r:


r=\sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{area}}{\pi}}.

Given an area of 1017.36 in² and using 3.14 for our value for π, the radius of our circle would be:


r=\sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{area}}{\pi}} = \sqrt{\frac{\textrm{1017.36 }\mathrm{in^2}}{3.14}} \\ r = 18 \text{ } \mathrm{in^2}.
