#~~# 9 meters

Explanation:

Area of a circle: #pi r^2#

Diameter of a circle: #2r#

Given area: 63.585 square meters

Assume #pi# #~~# 3.14

# r^2 = 63.585-:pi#

#r ~~ sqrt (20.25)#

#r ~~ 4.5#

The diameter #=2r ~~# 2 * 4.5 #~~# 9 meters

The diameter is about #8.99# meters

Explanation:

The problem wants to know the #"diameter"#, so the shape must be a circle.

The Area of a circle
#A = pi  r^2#

In this case, Area is given as #63.585# square meters.
Use the formula to find the radius.
Then use the radius to find the diameter.

#color(white)(...)##A##color(white)(....)##= pi##color(white)()#  #r^2#
#63.585 =  pi# #color(white)# #r^2#
Solve for #r#

Divide both sides by #pi# to isolate the #r^2# term
#20.24 = r^2#

Find the square roots of both sides to isolate the radius #r#
#4.98 = r#

Multiply #4.98# by #2# to find the diameter
#"Diameter" = 8.99# meters

Answer:
The diameter is about #8.99# meters

Diameter #color(brown)(d )~~color(blue)( 9 m)#

Explanation:

enter image source here

Area of a circle #A_C = pi r^2 = pi (d/2)^2 = 63.585 m^2#

enter image source here

where r is the radius and the diameter #d = 2 * r#

#pi * (d/2)^2 = 63.585#

#d = sqrt((4 * 63.585) / pi ) ~~ 9 m#
