Circumference = pi times diameter
or
Circumference= two x pi x radius.
Now remember the diameter of a circle is the straight line from one edge of the circle, through the centre to the opposite edge.
The straight line from the edge to the centre is the radius, and then from the centre to the opposite edge is another radius. So the diameter is the length of two radii.
Algebraically express as d = 2r.
So Algebraically
C = pi*d
Substituting the 'd' for '2r'
C = pi2r
However in algebra coefficient numbers are expressed to the left. Hence
C = 2pir
Why 'C' is this expression I would have to go into some 'very heavy' differential calculus.
Suffice it to say, the ancients found that the circumference traced by a donkey/mule driving water out of well was directly proportional to the diameter, twice the length of the tether(2 radii).
From this they discovered that for however long the the tether and the circumference were. they had a constant of proportion
C directly related to diameter.
This is equated to
C = kd
And
k = C/d , which was founf to be 3.141592..... which now call 'pi'. for any sized circle.
So today in school you learn
C = pi d
or
C = 2 pi r
And for circular area(A)
A = pi r^(2)
The 'pi' youare given in school is proabably 3.14 , 3.1416 or 22/7 . However, these values are Approximatons, because 'pi' is an irrational number.
Hope that helps!!!!!!
Circumference is equal to 2 times pi (3.1416) times one half of the diameter (the radius). So, if the diameter is 2 cm, then the circumference would be the product of (2) times (3.1416) times (1), or 6.2832 cm. Circumference is equal to diameter times Pi. c = Pi * d diameter times pi
Circumference is equal to pi x diameter Diameter is equal to 2 times the radius Circumference would be 2 x pi x radius
Because 2 times the radius is equal to the diameter of the circle
No. It is circumference/(2*pi)No. It is circumference/(2*pi)No. It is circumference/(2*pi)No. It is circumference/(2*pi)
Circumference equals the diameter times pi. The diameter is 2 times radius. Radius equals Circumference divided by pi then divided by 2.

Circumference is equal to pi x diameter Diameter is equal to 2 times the radius Circumference would be 2 x pi x radius
Because 2 times the radius is equal to the diameter of the circle
The circumference of a circle is equal to the radius times 2*pi. 2*pi*R where R is the radius.
A=pir2 a=3.14(2)2 a=3.14(4) a=pi*d area =pi r 2 circumference=pi times d in this equation in terms of pi, a=csquared
If you mean a circle: the circumference is equal to diameter x pi, or 2 x pi x radius.If you mean a circle: the circumference is equal to diameter x pi, or 2 x pi x radius.If you mean a circle: the circumference is equal to diameter x pi, or 2 x pi x radius.If you mean a circle: the circumference is equal to diameter x pi, or 2 x pi x radius.
Circumference of the can is 2*pi*radius or diameter times pi
Circumference is equal to 2 times pi times the radius. The radius is half the diameter, so pi times the diameter is also the circumference. In this case, the diameter is 3 meters so 3 times pi equals 9.42 So the circumference is about 9.42 meters.
Circumference = pi times the diameter, or pi times 2 times radius. Area = pi times (radius squared)
Using a compass and the circumference is measured by 2 times pi times radius or diameter times pi.
The circumference of a circle is equal to 2 times pi times the radius of the circle. Therefore, if the radius of the circle is 10 inches, the circumference would be 2 times pi times 10 inches, or 20 pi inches. Pi is a mathematical constant with a value of approximately 3.14, so the circumference of the circle would be approximately 62.8 inches.
It is not pie. That is something you eat. It is pi. Your formula is Circumference = pi times Diameter. Diameter = radius times 2. If you replace Circumference with pi then what do you get? You get pi = pi, or 1 pi = 1 pi. or 1=1. You now know the diameter. if the diameter is 1, what is the radius?
