Answer by Cromlix(4381) About Me  (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
if the pool is originally got a diameter of 22ft
and you extend out by 2ft, then your diameter =
26ft
Circumference = Pi * Diameter
= Pi * 26ft
= 81.7ft
This is the distance round your extended pool.
Hope this helps.
