radius
Additional answer
Actually, the radius is the line that joins the centre to the circumference. The line that compasses draw to trace a circle is just that, a circle.

General form of circle?
Round. A more detailed definition is that it is the set of all points that are at a given distance (the "radius") from a given point (the "center").
How many points are 4cm from a given line and 4 cm from a point on that line?
There are an infinity of points 4cm from a given line. These points form 2 lines parallel to and either side of the original line. Equally, there are an infinite number of points 4cm from a given point on the original line. These points lie on the circumference of a circle radius 4cm with its centre at the given point. There are only 2 points that fulfil both conditions. These points are found on the circumference of the circle where a diameter perpendicular to the original line and passing through the given point meets the circumference of the circle. These two points are also where the two parallel lines form tangents with the circle.
Why are circles important to building equilateral triangles?
The three vertices of a circle are at the same distance form each other. The circumference of a circle identifies all points which are at a given distance from a point (vertex).
