Best Answer

Radius is half of the diameter of a circle. (How far the middle is to an edge) The diameter of a circle is how far one side is from the other going through the center of the circle.

The word is also applied to the shorter of the two bones of the forearm, running from the elbow to the thumb side of the wrist. The other forearm bone is the ulna.
