Is the diameter of a circle always the same?

Best Answer

Every diameter of the same circle is the same length, and unless someone comes along

and stretches the circle when you're not looking, the diameter doesn't change.

So...YES

-----------

I disagree...

No they are not... all circles would be the same size if that were the case.

What remains a constant is that all circles are 360 degrees.

==================================

The question doesn't ask about " ... the diameter of circles ... ".

It asks about " ... the diameter of a circle ... ".

The diameter of circles is not always the same, but

the diameter of any one circle is always the same.

P.S.: This is not the place to debate the answer.

The "discussion area" is.

What is the length of a radius and the length of a diameter?

The length of a radius of a circle is half of the diameter of the same circle. So, diameter is always twice the radius.


Can the circumference of a circle and the diameter of a circle be the same?

No. The circumference is always (pi) times as long as the diameter. If it isn't, then whatever shape you're looking at is not a circle.


Why the value of pi is constant?

The value of pi is constant. It is calculated by dividing the circumference of a circle by its diameter. As the circle's circumference grows, the diameter grows at the same rate, proportionally. This means that the circumference divided by the diameter (if measured precisely) will always yield pi. If it does not, it is not a perfect circle. The ratio between the circumference and the diameter of a circle will always stay the same, no matter how you change the size of the circle.


Is the radius always equal to the diameter of a circle?

No, the radius of a circle is always 1/2 of the diameter.

2A. Diameter is always twice the radius.


Is a chord or a diamater longer?

In a circle, there are 1 or more chords, and only always 1 diameter. The diameter goes through the middle point in a circle and connects 2 points on a circle. A chord does not have to go through the middle, but can. The diameter always counts as a chord. So, either, both the chord and diameter are the same length, or the chord is shorter. I hope this answers your question! (:
