How to apply border-radius in CSS?


I'm working on a tutorial-based website design. I've added border-radius: 40px; to a CSS class, but the rounded corners aren't showing up. Here's the relevant CSS and images of the expected vs. actual results:

Expected:

tutorial's result with rounded corners

My Result:

my result without rounded corners

I've already validated my code and checked for typos. Are there other reasons why the border-radius might not be working?
