How many times is the circumference bigger than the diameter of a circle?
The circumference of a circle is 3.14159… times, or pi times bigger than its diameter.
If the circumference of a circle is 18.6 cm more than its diameter then what is the diameter of the circle?
8.68
How many times longer is the circumference of a circle than its diameter?
It is larger than the diameter by a factor of Pi (about 3.1416).
Is circumference shorter or longer then radius or diameter?
It's longer than both. The circumference - is the distance around the circle... The diameter - is the distance across the circle, passing through the centre... The radius - is the distance from the centre of the circle to the edge.
Is the circumference of a circle greater than less than or equal to the perimiter of a semi circle?
The circumference is pi x diameter Perimeter of semi circle is (0.5) x pi x diameter + diameter which is diameter x (0.5pi + 1) Subtracting Perimeter from Circumference we get [pi x diameter] - [diameter x (0.5pi + 1)] which is diameter x [pi - 0.5pi -1] pi = 3.1415 Hence the result = diameter x (3.1415 - 1.570 - 1) which will always be positive. Hence circumference is greater than perimeter of semi circle. Intuitively also we see that the diameter is a straight line and the semi circles are arcs over the end points of the diameter.
How many times is the circumference bigger than the diameter of a circle?
The circumference of a circle is 3.14159… times, or pi times bigger than its diameter.
Can the diameter be bigger than the circumference?
You cannot really compare those two different kinds of values - it's quite nonsense to compare area versus circumference. You could compare numbers but they'll vary depending on your choice of units. Anyway, it's perfectly possible to have shape of area, say, 1 m2 and circumference measured in kilometers - if the shapes perimeter is ragged.
How many times is the circumference shorter than the diameter of a circle?
Given a diameter d, the circumference of a circle is Pi*d. Thus the circumference is Pi times larger than the diameter.
If the circumference of a circle is 18.6 cm more than its diameter then what is the diameter of the circle?
8.68
Which dimensions of a circle is always smaller than the other two?
The radius of a circle is always smaller than the diameter and the circumference.
Is the diameter of the circle always greater than the radius of the circle?
No, only if the diameter is bigger than the radius is the radius smaller than the diameter.
Which is larger the perimeter of a 2' 4' rectangle or the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 36?
The circumference of the circle is larger than the perimeter of the rectangle.
Is the circumference always longer than the diameter of a circle?
Yes, always
Why is measuring the diameter of a circle easier than measuring the its circumference?
Because the diameter is a straight line.
How many times longer is the circumference of a circle than its diameter?
It is larger than the diameter by a factor of Pi (about 3.1416).
What is the difference between diameter and circumference?
Diameter is the distance across a circle through the center. Circumference is the distance around the outside of a circle. Circumference is always pi (3.14) times larger than diameter.Note:pi is approximately 3.14
What does pi actually represent?
Generally, Pi is used to represent the rate of change of the circumference of a circle as it's diameter increases. This can be shown using the equation [circumference = Pi * diameter], that is the circumference of a circle is always Pi times larger than it's diameter.
