Pi, of course, is the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter. This number is just slightly over three, and is irrational (it never repeats or terminates).

There are various formulas for deriving pi. You can even obtain an excellent approximation by dropping a pin on a floor of evenly spaced parallel lines. See the associated link for some of the formulas. Note: Machin's formula (using inverse tangents of unit fractions) is calculated in radians. In this respect it is, in effect, a definition of pi in terms of itself. Nevertheless it is a most curious relationship.

π/4 = 4tan-1(1/5) - tan-1(1/239)

More curious yet is the incredible relationship between pi and the natural log e:

eπi = -1, where i is the imaginary square root of -1. i2 = -1.

The value of pi is determined by a circle's circumference divided by its diameter and its exact value has never been discovered because it's an irrational number

How do you find the diameter of a cylinder from the area of the base?

The area of the base of a cylinder = Pi times Radius squared. Diameter of a cylinder = 2 times Pi times Radius. To find the diameter derive the area of the base by Pi and then square root the answer. That will give you the value of the radius. Multiply that answer by 2 times Pi and you will have your answer.


How do you determine square feet of a circle?

Measure its radius in feet or derive it from the diameter or circumference. A circle with radius r feet has an area of pi*r^2 square feet.


Derive the formula for radius if the formula is c equals pi times r squared?

Where pi (~ 3.1416) is represented by π, The formula C= πr2 yields the formula r2 = (C/π) therefore r = square root (C/π). ...which is the same as : r = (C/π)1/2.
