Is diameter the measurement across a circle or the measurement around a cirlcle?
"Diameter" is the distance all the way across the circle, through the center."Radius" is 1/2 of the diameter ... the distance from the center to the curvy part of the circle."Circumference" is the distance all the way aroundthe circle.
Is a circle less than or equal to the radius?
The radius of a circle is the distance from the center of the circle, out to the edge of the circle. The distance all the way across the circle is the "diameter." Half of the diameter is the radius.
What is the longest distance between two points?
Infinity Incorrect ! The longest distance between those two points is a straight line from one point , running all the way around the world to the second point. Thus the shortest distance together with the longest distance is a full circle around the world with both points on the circle.
How is a circle different from an ellipse?
