Because the circumference of a circle divided by its diameter is equal to pi.
Because the circumference of any circle divided by its diameter is equal to the value of pi which is an irrational number.
the other formulas involve non-circular shapes
Although it is different for pretty much each shape, the basic answer is just that you add up the sides. For circular shapes the formula is: Pi X Radius to the 2nd power
assuming the island is circular.... use the formula Area=(pi)x(radius squared) to find the radius, then use the formula C=2(pi)(radius) to determine the circumference.

If the wire has a circular cross-section - the usual case - use the formula for the circle: pi x radius squared.
