it would be the diameter of the smaller circle times sqrt 2
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.
A chord is a straight line from one point on a circle's circumference to another. Because the largest straight line distance in a circle is the diameter and the diameter is also a chord, the diameter is the longest chord. Join the endpoints of a given chord to the center of the circle to form an isosceles triangle. The triangle inequality then tells that the length of the chord is less than two radii of the circle, i.e., less than the diameter. See related links.
The area bounded by an arc of circle and two radii is known as a "circular sector"
The area is called as "Sector"
That's right. In a circle, the length of a diameter will be the same as twice the length of a radius.
NoneAdditional Information:-Unless it is the diameter of the circle which is its the largest chord then it will have a length equal to two radii (but the chord itself has no radii).
Yes it is, two radii make up the dimater of a circle. :)
The sum of two radii of a circle is the same as the diameter of the circle.
The diameter STUPID!
The diameter of a hexagon will be any segment that joins two vertices of the hexagon and passes through its center. Since each of the angles of a hexagon is 120 degrees, than any triangle, which is formed by one side of the triangle and two radii, is an equilateral triangle, and so the lengths of radii are also 16 inches. Thus, the diameter (the sum of two radii) is 32 inches.
Think of a diameter as two radii in a straight line...
The radius is exactly half of the diameter. Two radii (plural for radius) smushed together gives you the diameter.
Is the diameter of a circle was 11cm the radius would be 5.5cm as two radii equals a diameter.
it would be the diameter of the smaller circle times sqrt 2
The diameter of a circle is twice length of a radius, because it is basically two radii (plural of radius) joined together so they form a continuous line across the circle. If you multiply the length of the radius, 40 meters, by 2, then you get the length of the diameter, 80 meters.
Draw a diameter on the circle from A to B and mark the midpoint, C (center of the circle). Mark the midpoint, D, of one of those radii (halfway between center and edge). Draw a perpendicular line to the diameter from D to the two edges of the circle, E and F. Draw radii from E to C and F to C. Lines AC, EC, and FC mark the three equal parts of a circle.
