Pi (π) is a mathematical constant that represents the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter. This means that for any circle, if you divide the circumference by the diameter, the result will always be π, approximately equal to 3.14159. This relationship is fundamental in geometry and helps in calculating various properties of circles, such as their area and circumference. Thus, pi is essential for understanding the geometric properties of circles.
The area of a circle is pi times the square of the radius. Pi has no relationship with the area of a polygon.

pi is approximately 3.14, and is the ratio of any circle's diameter to its circumference.
Circumference of a circle is 2 x Pi x the radius
diameter times pi(3.14159) equals cicumference
'pi' in IRRATIONAL number. This means that its decimal points go to infinity and there is NO regular order in the decimal digits. You will be given 'pi' = 3.14, or 3.1416, or 22/7 when learning circle calculations. However, these are only approximations. In circle calculations 'pi' has the relationship;- Circumference equals two multiplied to 'pi' multiplied to the radius. Algebraically written as ;- C = 2pir or C = pi*d ( where 'd' is the diameter). Remember two radii equals one diameter. ( 2r = d ) The other circle equation to learn is are of a circle. Area equals 'pi' multiplied to the radius squared. Algebraically A = pi* r^(2) 'pi' has been known from ancient times. It was noticed that when a mule/donkey was driven round a well , on a tether, to bring up water. The tether was the radius. and the track made by the mule was the circumference. It was noticed that however, long or short the tether, and thereby the circumference of the circle. They always had a relationship. Circumference is directly proportional to the radius. C directly proportional r To equate this a constant 'k' is inserted. C = k*r Algebraically rearranging k = C/r It was noticed that 'k' was ALWAYS the same for any circle however large or small. So it was given the name 'pi' from the Classical Greek small case letter 'p' , for proportionality, which is 'pi' pi = 3.1415927..... is an IRRATIONAL number, which means the decimals digits go to infinity and there is no regular order in the decimal numbers. However, when learning circles you are given pi = 3.14, or 3.1416, or 22/7 , but remember these are only Approximations. . Supa Dupa Computers have calculated 'pi' to at least 50 billion places and still going. Hope that helps!!!!!
The area of a circle is pi times the square of the radius. Pi has no relationship with the area of a polygon.
pi X diameter = circumference of the circle.
Pi is the relationship between the diameter and the circumference of a circle.
pi
pi is approximately 3.14, and is the ratio of any circle's diameter to its circumference.
Area = (Circumference squared)/4 pi Circumference = 2 sqrt(Area times pi)
Circumference of a circle is 2 x Pi x the radius
The circumference and diameter
diameter times pi(3.14159) equals cicumference
Pi ( 3.142 approx.) is the amount of times the diameter of a circle can be measured along the circumference of a circle. We know that Pi multiplied by the diameter of the circle is equal to it circumference. So we write C=PiD This means, as it says above, that a certain number of "Pi's" will be equal to the circumference.
The circumference of a circle is equal to pi times its diameter. Another way to say this is that for any circle, circumference divided by diameter will always have pi as the answer, regardless of the size of the circle.
