the reason is because a circle is divided in 3 parts and the left overs are .14 so when you measure the ciecumference, you times the diameter by 3.14 and you get the correct answer to the question.EX: R=3.5cm D=7cm 7cm so that is why we use pi . x 3.14

How do you find the circumference of a circle when you know the area?

OK, SO to find the area of a circle, you find the radius (half of the diameter), and fit it into the equation πr2=A where r equals radius and A = area. The perimeter of a circle is π multiplied by the diameter. π is ≈ 3.1415296.


How do you find the area of a circle knowing only the circumference?

To find the area of a circle knowing only the circumference, you can use the formula A = (C^2) / (4π), where A is the area and C is the circumference. Square the circumference, then divide it by 4π to get the area.

What would you multiply the circumference of a circle by if you want to find the area of the circle?

To find the area of a circle, you would multiply the circumference by the radius and then divide by 2π (since the circumference (C) is (2πr) and the area (A) is (πr^2)). This means you can express the area in terms of the circumference as (A = \frac{C \cdot r}{2π}). However, it's simpler to directly use the formula (A = πr^2). Thus, you wouldn't multiply the circumference by a single number to find the area; instead, you would need the radius.
