Best Answer

You use the formula for the area of any circle:

Area = (pi) x (radius)2

and to find the radius to use in this formula, you remember that

Radius = 1/2 of the diameter.

A couple of additional helpful facts:

-- A convenient and quite accurate number to use for (pi) is 22/7 .

-- The correct spelling of "circle" is "c i r c l e".

How do you change square feet into a diameter of a cicle?

To find the diameter of a circle given the area. The area of a circle = pi x the radius squared. To find the radius, then the diameter transpose the area formula, so A = Π * r^2 A/ Π = r^2 √A/ Π= r 2 x √A/ Π = d A = area Π = pi = 3.142 r = radius d = diameter

How do you find the diameter of a circle with an area with 78.5 feet?

First we have to find the radius because the diameter is twice the radius: pi*radius2 = 78.5 sq ft Divide both sides by pi and then square root both sides: radius = 4.998732446 diameter = 9.997464892 or 10 feet to the nearest foot
