diameter
Add the same amount again by finding the difference of the midpoint and end point. Example: If the end point is 3 and the mid point is 9. The difference between 3 and 9 is 6 so add 6 to 9 and get 15.
In the case of a circle: Diameter: The distance through the circle - from one end to the other, passing through the center. Circumference: The distance around the circle.
Wait, what? I believe diameter is the measurement straight across the middle of a circle, not a unit of measurement. So if a circle were to be 27 inches in diameter, it would be 27 inches from one side of the circle to the other, with the line going exactly through the center of the circle. Basically, cutting the circle in half.
Take a compass, extend it about 3/4 of the length of the segment. Then from one end of the segment, draw a 180 degree arc. From the other end draw another arc. Connect the points where the arcs intersect. Where the line intersects with the segment is the midpoint of the segment. That is how you bisect a segment to find the midpoint - geometrically.
It's called the diameter. The diameter is: 12756.2 kilometers from side to side. Hope this helps! -House of Anubis lover :)
The segment you describe is the radius of the circle.
Such a line segment would be a radius of the circle.
radius
A radius.
The line segment is a radius.
The radius goes from the center out to the edge of the circle.
Is called a radius.
A line segment with the center of a circle as one endpoint and the other endpoint on the circumference of the circle is a rdius of that circle.
A radius.
A radius of a circle is a line segment joining the center of the circle to a point on the circle. All such segments have the same length, and this length also called the radius of the circle.
a radius
The answer depends on where the other end of the line segment is. If it is on the circumference the segment is a radius. Otherwise, it is indeterminate.
