The correct formula to find the area of a circle is A = πr^2, where r is the radius of the circle.

Given that the diameter of the circle is 21 mi, we can find the radius by dividing the diameter by 2.
radius = diameter/2 = 21 mi/2 = 10.5 mi

Now, we can substitute the value of the radius into the formula to calculate the area:
A = 3.14 * (10.5 mi)^2 = 3.14 * 110.25 mi^2 = 346.185 mi^2

Rounding to the nearest hundredths place, the area of the circle is approximately 346.19 mi^2.

Therefore, the correct answer is 346.19 mi.2.
