*draw an isoscles triangle with the bottom side be equal to 59 ft and the angle opposite that side be equal to 12°
*bisect the angle 12° into 6° angles
*divide the bottom side into two (29.5 ft)
*note: the two equal sides of the isosceles triangles are the radii of the circle
To solve the radius:
sin6° = (29.5 ft / radius)
radius = 29.5 ft / sin6°
radius = 283.18 ft
