A circle is the set of points less than or equal to the radius?
false
Is a circle with a area of 40 more less or same than a circle with a radius of 4?
In order to even discuss this question, we must assume that the unit of the '40' is the square of the unit of the '4'. -- The radius, diameter, and circumference of the circle with an area of 40 are each 10.794% shorter than the corresponding measurement in the circle with radius = 4 . -- Its area (40) is 20.423% less than the area of the circle with the radius of 4 .
What is the interior of a circle?
The set points whose distance from the center of the circle that is less than the radius. A disk.
How do you know whether to use an open circle or a closed circle when graphing an inequality?
If the inequality is > or< then it is an open circle. If it is greater than or equal to or less than or equal to, it is a closed circle.
How is an apothem different from a radius?
An apothem is a line drawn perpendicular to a side of a regular polygon from the center of the polygon. A polygon is not a circle so it cannot have a radius. The radius of a circle is drawn from the center to any point in the circumference of the circle. You can draw a circle which encloses the regular polygon touching all vertices. The polygon is said to be inscribed in the circle. The apothem will be less than the radius because the radius is not perpendicular to any side, it can be drawn to a vertex but the apothem is perpendicular to a side, so it is shorter. Ex: draw a square with a circle which inscribes it. You can see that the apothem will be less than the radius.
