If the radius is 18 inches, the diameter is 3 feet. The circumference of the tire is therefore 3π by C=d(π). After 200 revolutions, the tire and car have gone 3π x 200 = 600π feet.

The radius is 3. Yielding a circumference of .

We first must calculate the distance between these two points. Recall that the distance formula is:√((x2 - x1)2 + (y2 - y1)2)

For us, it is therefore: √((4 - 2)2 + (6 - 5)2) = √((2)2 + (1)2) = √(4 + 1) = √5

If d = √5, the circumference of our circle is πd, or π√5.

The area of a triangle is denoted by the equation 1/2 b x h.

b stands for the length of the base, and h stands for the height.

Here we are told that the perimeter (total length of all three sides) is 12, and the hypotenuse (the side that is neither the height nor the base) is 5 units long.

So, 12-5 = 7 for the total perimeter of the base and height.

7 does not divide cleanly by two, but it does break down into 3 and 4,

and 1/2 (3x4) yields 6.

Another way to solve this would be if you recall your rules for right triangles, one of the very basic ones is the 3,4,5 triangle, which is exactly what we have here

Jeff drives a total of 10 miles north and 10 miles east. Using the Pythagorean theorem (a2+b2=c2), the direct route from Jeff’s home to his work can be calculated. 102+102=c2. 200=c2. √200=c. √100Ÿ√2=c. 10√2=c

By using Pythagorean Theorem, we can solve for the distance “as the crow flies” from Jim to his home:

102 + 52 = _x_2

100 + 25 = _x_2

√125 = x, but we still need to factor the square root

√125 = √25*5, and since the √25 = 5, we can move that outside of the radical, so

5√5= x

The equation for the circumference of a circle is , so by substituting the given radius into the equation, we get .

The original radius would be 4, making the new radius 8 and by the area of a circle (A=π(r)2) the new area would be 64π.

The length of 20 represents the diameters of both circles. Each circle has a diameter of 10 and since radius is half of the diameter, each circle has a radius of 5. The area of a circle is A = πr2 . The area of one circle is 25π. The area of both circles is 50π. The area of the rectangle is (10)(20) = 200. 200 - 50π gives you the area of the paper after the two circles have been cut out. π is about 3.14, so 200 – 50(3.14) = 43.

Using the Pythagorean theorem, _x_2 + _y_2 = _h_2. And since it is a 45-45-90 triangle the two short sides are equal. Therefore 52 + 52 = _h_2 . Multiplied out 25 + 25 = _h_2.

Therefore _h_2 = 50, so h = √50 = √2 * √25 or 5√2.

Pythagorean Theorum

AB2 + BC2 = AC2

If C is 45º then A is 45º, therefore AB = BC

AB2 + BC2 = AC2

62 + 62 = AC2

2*62 = AC2

AC = √(2*62) = 6√2

The formula for the area of a circle is A = _πr_2.

We are given the area, and by substitution we know that 13_π_ = _πr_2.

We divide out the π and are left with 13 = _r_2.

We take the square root of r to find that r = √13.

We find the circumference of the circle with the formula C = 2_πr_.

We then plug in our values to find C = 2√13_π_.

First you must draw the diagram. The diagonal of the rectangle is also the diameter of the circle. The diagonal is the hypotenuse of a multiple of 2 of a 3,4,5 triangle, and therefore is 10.
Circumference = π * diameter = 10_π_.

In order to solve this question, first calculate the length of each side of the room.

The length of each side of the room is also equal to the length of the diameter of the largest circular rug that can fit in the room. Since , the circumference is simply

The shape of the garden consists of a rectangle and two semi-circles. Since they are building a fence we need to find the perimeter. The perimeter of the length of the rectangle is 24. The perimeter or circumference of the circle can be found using the equation C=2π(r), where r= the radius of the circle. Since we have two semi-circles we can find the circumference of one whole circle with a radius of 4, which would be 8π.

The formula for the area of a circle is πr2. For this particular circle, the area is 81π, so 81π = πr2. Divide both sides by π and we are left with r2=81. Take the square root of both sides to find r=9. The formula for the circumference of the circle is 2πr = 2π(9) = 18π. The correct answer is 18π.

Circumference is given by the equation . We can use this equation with the given radius, 4.2, to solve for the circumference.

To find the circumference of a circle given the radius we must first know the equation for the circumference of a circle which is

We then plug in the number for the radius into the equation yielding

We multiply to find the value for the circumference is .

The answer is .

In order to find the circumference, we will use the formula .

In order to find the circumference of a circle (which is the perimeter or distance around the circle), you must double the radius and multiply by pi ().
