**Determine the Shaded Area**

In the image, there is a circle inscribed within a square. The circle has a diameter labeled as 14 ft. The area outside the circle but within the square is shaded.

**Diagram Explanation:**
- The circle is perfectly inscribed within a square, meaning the diameter of the circle is equal to the side length of the square.
- The circle's diameter is indicated as 14 ft, so each side of the square is also 14 ft.

**Task:**
Calculate the area of the shaded region.

**Steps:**
1. **Calculate the Area of the Square:**
   \[
   \text{Area of square} = \text{side}^2 = 14^2 = 196 \, \text{ft}^2
   \]

2. **Calculate the Area of the Circle:**
   - Radius of circle = diameter/2 = 14/2 = 7 ft
   \[
   \text{Area of circle} = \pi \times \text{radius}^2 = \pi \times 7^2 \approx 153.94 \, \text{ft}^2
   \]

3. **Calculate the Shaded Area:**
   \[
   \text{Shaded area} = \text{Area of square} - \text{Area of circle} = 196 - 153.94 \approx 42.06 \, \text{ft}^2
   \]

**The shaded area is:** [\_\_] ft²  
*(Round to two decimal places.)*

Select the correct unit from the options provided:

- ft.
- ft⁴.
- ft².
- ft³. 

The correct choice is ft².
