What would the diameter of two circles of equal size be relative to the diameter of one circle of equal area?
it would be the diameter of the smaller circle times sqrt 2
How every circle has unique diameter?
That means that a given circle doesn't have two or three diameters. For a given circle, there is a unique measurement, called its "diameter". It is the distance from one end to the other, passing through the center. Since the circle is defined as all the points that are at the same distance from a point (the center), all radii are the same distance; and the diameter is simply twice the radius.
Why is the diameter the longest chord?
A chord is a straight line from one point on a circle's circumference to another. Because the largest straight line distance in a circle is the diameter and the diameter is also a chord, the diameter is the longest chord. Join the endpoints of a given chord to the center of the circle to form an isosceles triangle. The triangle inequality then tells that the length of the chord is less than two radii of the circle, i.e., less than the diameter. See related links.
A portion of a circle and its interior bound by an arc and to radii is a?
The area bounded by an arc of circle and two radii is known as a "circular sector"
What is the regoin bounded by a arc of a circle and two radii?
The area is called as "Sector"
Does two radii equal one diameter?
That's right. In a circle, the length of a diameter will be the same as twice the length of a radius.
How many radii does a chord have?
NoneAdditional Information:-Unless it is the diameter of the circle which is its the largest chord then it will have a length equal to two radii (but the chord itself has no radii).
How do the lengths of two radii of the same circle compare?
The sum of two radii of a circle is the same as the diameter of the circle.
Is a diameter made up of any two radii?
Yes it is, two radii make up the dimater of a circle. :)
What is the length of the segment connecting two radii in a circle?
The diameter STUPID!
What will be the diameter of a hexagon be with 16 inch sides?
The diameter of a hexagon will be any segment that joins two vertices of the hexagon and passes through its center. Since each of the angles of a hexagon is 120 degrees, than any triangle, which is formed by one side of the triangle and two radii, is an equilateral triangle, and so the lengths of radii are also 16 inches. Thus, the diameter (the sum of two radii) is 32 inches.
Radius of a circle is 8 inches how do you find the diameter?
Think of a diameter as two radii in a straight line...
How do you find the diameter of a circle when you know it's radius?
The radius is exactly half of the diameter. Two radii (plural for radius) smushed together gives you the diameter.
What is the answer to the diameters equals 11 cm what would the radius be?
Is the diameter of a circle was 11cm the radius would be 5.5cm as two radii equals a diameter.
What would the diameter of two circles of equal size be relative to the diameter of one circle of equal area?
it would be the diameter of the smaller circle times sqrt 2
40meter radius is equal to how many diameter?
The diameter of a circle is twice length of a radius, because it is basically two radii (plural of radius) joined together so they form a continuous line across the circle. If you multiply the length of the radius, 40 meters, by 2, then you get the length of the diameter, 80 meters.
How do you divide a circle into 3 parts using only a confectionery ruler with no markings?
Draw a diameter on the circle from A to B and mark the midpoint, C (center of the circle). Mark the midpoint, D, of one of those radii (halfway between center and edge). Draw a perpendicular line to the diameter from D to the two edges of the circle, E and F. Draw radii from E to C and F to C. Lines AC, EC, and FC mark the three equal parts of a circle.
