Circumference and Pi Calculations

The video tutorial explains how to determine the circumference of a circle, equating it to the perimeter. It introduces two formulas: one using the diameter and the other using the radius. The tutorial provides examples for both scenarios, demonstrating calculations and rounding techniques. It emphasizes the importance of using the correct value for pi, whether the exact value or an approximation, to ensure accurate results.

What is the circumference of a circle equivalent to?

• The area of the circle

• The radius of the circle

• The diameter of the circle

• The perimeter of the circle
