Some real-world examples where
understanding circles and these
terms is essential include:
designing a circular garden,
calculating the size of a circular
pizza, or measuring the distance
around a basketball.

Radius-the distance from the center of the circle to the outside edge.

Diameter-the distance across the circle from one edge to the other.​

The diameter is the distance across
the circle passing through its center,
connecting two points on the
opposite sides.
The measurement can be any unit of
length such as centimeters, inches,
or feet.

Pi (𝛑) is a mathematical constant that

represents the ratio of a circle's

circumference to its diameter.

The approximate value of Pi (𝛑) = 3.14

It's an irrational number with infinite

decimal places

Fun Fact: March 14 ( 3/14) is known as

international Pi (𝛑) day

The diameter of a circle is two times
the radius
The letter symbol for diameter is d
The letter symbol for radius is r
The mathematical expression for the

relationship between radius and
diameter is [d = 2 x r]

Imagine you have a pizza with a
diameter of 14 inches. Fnd both the
circumference and the area of the
pizza.

CHALLENGE QUESTION

media

Given:

diameter = 14 inches

𝛑 ≈ 3.14

Solution:

If d = 14 inches then r = d ÷ 2 = 14 ÷ 2 = 7 inches

Then

C = 𝛑 x d = 14 x 3.14 = 43.96 inches

A = 𝛑 x r² = 3.14 x 7 x 7 = 153.86 inches²

​​Circumference

​​Area of a Circle

The circumference is the distance around a circle. Similar to finding the perimeter of a square of the rectangle.

The formula for circumference is C=πD or C=π2r

​The area of a circle is the region inside the edge of a circle in a 2D plane. This is just like finding the area of a square of rectangle with just a different formula.

The formula for finding the area of a circle is A=πr²​
