Best Answer

If you know the circumference then divide that by (2 x pi) and you will get the radius. The width is unnecessary information.

How do you determine length and width of a circle?

there is no length or width of a circle. There is radius and circumference and the line that goes all the way through the center to the other side of the circle, which is twice the radius. But there is no length or width of a circle.


How do you derive of surface area of cylinder?

The surface area of a cylinder can be derived from the area of rectangle. If you 'unroll' a cylinder you have a shape of a rectangle, similar to a sheet of paper. The width of the rectangle will be the height of the cylinder and the length of the rectangle will be the circumference of the cylinder end.So, Area = length * widthwhere, width = height of cylinder & length = circumference of cylinder end = PI*(Diameter of cylinder)Therefore,surface area of a cylinder = (PI)*(diameter of cylinder)*(height of cylinder)Hope that helps!


How far will a 20 inch wheel travel in one revolution?

20 inches measured where on the wheel? Radius? Diameter? Circumference? Width?


What is the perimeter or circumference of an oval or ellipse?

It isn't possible to give a generalised formula for the circumference of an ellipse in terms of elementary functions. The circumference (or perimeter) of an oval is represented by an infinite series based on multiple aspects of the oval including: * Eccentricity * Implied length ("major radius") * Implied width ("minor radius")

How do you find circumference of cylinder given length and width?

The width times pi equals the circumference.


How do you find the area of 1 face of a cylinder?

Faces of cylinder are circular therefore area must be pi*radius*radius That is the formula for the top and bottom faces, the circles. However, the main face, the face connecting the two circles, is really a large rectangle bended to fit with the circles. The height of the rectangle is the same as the height of the cylinder. The width of the rectangle is the circumference of the circle (pi * 2 * radius). The formula for a rectangle is width * height. So, the side face is height of cylinder * circumference of circle (pi * 2 * radius.)


How do you find length and width given the circumference?

If you mean the diameter and radius of a circle given the circumference it is:- diameter = circumference/pi radius = circumference/(2*pi)


How do you figure out the radius if you only have length and width?

radius = diameter/2 radius = circumference/2*pi


What is the lateral surface area of a cylinder with the radius 5 and the width 10?

A cylinder with radius 5 and width 10 has a lateral area of about 314.16 units2


How do you get the radius of a cylinder?

If you have a physical cylinder to measure, measure the "width" of the circle that is the cross section of the cylinder. That is the diameter, Half the diameter is the radius.


How do you calculate diamater with width and length?

diameter of a circle = 2*radius or circumference/pi


How do you determine length and width of a circle?

there is no length or width of a circle. There is radius and circumference and the line that goes all the way through the center to the other side of the circle, which is twice the radius. But there is no length or width of a circle.


How do you get the outer surface area of a cylinder?

Think of slitting the cylinder down one side, then unroll it and lay it down flat. What you have then is a rectangle. The area of the rectangle is: (length x width). The length of the rectangle used to be the length of the cylinder, and the width of the rectangle used to be the circumference of the circle at the end of the cylinder, which is (pi) x (diameter of the cylinder), or (pi) x (double the radius of the cylinder). We're sure you can do it now.


Is the bore of a cylinder the circumference?

The bore of a cylinder describes is measurement, in millimeters or inches, of the inside diameter of the cylinder. The diameter is the width across.


What is the width of a circle called?

The width of a circle is called the diameter. The distance from the centre to the edge is called the radius and the distance around the rim is called the circumference
