\[C = \Pi D\]

That may not help too much, I looked at the picture after..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

r^2 would go in place of the 50 so the radius is 7.07... or 7. and since diameter is 2xr, the diameter would be 14. but thats not up there

OpenStudy (phi):

they want you to notice the formula they gave you matches \[ (x - x_0)^2 + (y-y_0)^2 = r^2 \] that is the standard equation of a circle with a center at \( (x_0,y_0) \) and radius r if you match that with your problem you match \[ r^2 = 50 \] and , if you take the square root, \[ r = \sqrt{50}= \sqrt{2\cdot 5\cdot 5} = 5 \sqrt{2} \] That is a lot of stuff to know... But if you did know it, you would then say \[ C= 2 \pi \ r \]
