​Goals For This Project

​After finishing this lesson you should be able to know what the circumference, area, radius, and diameter of a circle are.

​Finding the Circumference of a Circle

​You can find the circumference of a circle by multiplying the radius of a circle by 2 to find the diameter of a circle. After that, you multiply the diameter by 3.14 also known as Pi to find the circumference of the circle.

​

If you are not given the measure of the radius and only the measure of the diameter you can still figure out the circumference. To figure out the circumference with the diameter of a circle you would need to multiply it by 3.14.​

​

​To find the circumference of a circle, first, you'll have to know what the radius and the diameter of a circle are. The radius of a circle is the distance from the perimeter of a circle to the center of the circle and the diameter of a circle is the distance​ from the perimeter of the circle to the other side of the circle. These 2 parts of a circle are important when finding a circle's circumference.

​Finding the Area of a Circle

​To find the area of a circle first you have to find the measure of the radius. If the problem doesn't give you the radius right away you can still find it if you are given the diameter of the circle, you would just need to divide the diameter of the circle by two, and then you'll have your radius.​

​

After finding the radius of your circle​ you need to square your radius. Meaning to multiplying the number of your radius by itself. For example, if the radius is 4 and I square 4, that means that I would do 4 x 4.

​Next, after finding the squared radius you multiply that by 3.14 or pi and there you go! You now have found the area of your circle.

​Putting It All Together

​After learning about circles, it's time to review what we have learned.

​Digits of Pi

​Here are the first 150 digits of Pi, try to remember as many digits as possible before going to the next slide: 3.141592653589793238462643383279502884 197169399375105820974944592307816406286208998628034825342117067982148086513282306647093844609550582231725359408128
