I'm not sure what you're referring to however: the radius is from the center point to the outer edge of the circle the diameter is the length from one side of the circle to the other and the circumference is the distance all the way round a circle hope this helps :)
Because the radius is the distance from one side to the center, and the diameter is the direct distance from one side to the other through the center.
The radius is the distance from the edge to the center. Diameter is distance from one edge through the center to the other edge. The diameter is twice the radius. If the radius is 1, then twice that is 2.
The radius is the distance from the center of the circle to its edge. No matter how you draw this radius, it is one value of one length only, for any given circle.
The radius goes from the center out to the edge of the circle.
The distance from one side of a circle to the other going through the center is called the Diameter, the distance from any side to the center (half the diameter) is called the radius.
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.

there are 3 measurements of a circle the diameter, which is the distance from one point of the circle through the center point to the other side the radius, which is the distance from the center point to any point of the circle (which is 1/2 of the diameter) and the circumference, which is the distance from one point on the circle all the way around to the point you started at
The radius is the distance from the center to the outside. The diameter is the distance from the outside to the outside, passing through the center - in other words, twice the radius.
Because the radius is the distance from one side to the center, and the diameter is the direct distance from one side to the other through the center.
The diameter of a circle is the distance from one side of the circle to the other side by a straight line going through the center point of the circle. The longest distance between any two points on a circle. One-half of the diameter is the radius. That is the distance from the center of the circle to any point on the circle by a straight line. The square of the radius (the radius times the radius) times the value of pi is equal to the distance around the circle called the circumference.
The radius is the distance from the edge to the center. Diameter is distance from one edge through the center to the other edge. The diameter is twice the radius. If the radius is 1, then twice that is 2.
The most commonly used measure of a circle is its radius, which is the distance from the center of the circle to any point on its circumference. The radius is generally represented by the letter "r". Other measures of a circle include its diameter (the distance across the circle passing through its center) and its circumference (the distance around the circle).
If the diameter (distance from one side of the circle to the other) is 26 meters then the circumference is 81.68141 meters. If the radius (distance from the center of the circle to the edge of the circle) is 26 meters then the circumference is 163.3628 meters. -D
No, the distance around a circle is called the circumference. The radius is the distance from the exact center of the circle to the edge of the circle and is one half of the diameter. The diameter is one straight line passing through the center of the circle from one end to the other. The circumference can be determined from the following equation: C = pi * d or C = 2*pi*r
That means that a given circle doesn't have two or three diameters. For a given circle, there is a unique measurement, called its "diameter". It is the distance from one end to the other, passing through the center. Since the circle is defined as all the points that are at the same distance from a point (the center), all radii are the same distance; and the diameter is simply twice the radius.
