would someone mind helping me with a few questions? :)

OpenStudy (song_of_the_sole):

to find the area of a circle you need to know that A-pi ^2 and to find the circumfrence of a cirlce C=2 pi a what i dont know is what information i need to obtain to find either the area or circumfrence of a circle.

OpenStudy (greep):

To find area is to take half the diameter of any circle (r), times that by itself (r^2), times pi (3.14). Finding the circumference is just taking the whole diameter and times-ing that by pi. so: \[A= 3.14* r^2\] \[C=3.14*D\]

OpenStudy (booknerd1234):

Concepts to remember. • The Circumference is the area around the outside of the circle. • The Radius is a straight line from the center of the circle and the endpoint lies on the circle. • The Diameter is a straight line through the center of the circle and both endpoints lie on the circle. Therefore the Diameter is twice the length or distance of the radius. • pi π symbolizes the ratio -- the relationship with respect to relative size of the circumference of circle to its diameter. The numrical value of π is 3.14

would that be the information i need to obtain?

OpenStudy (booknerd1234):

r is radius or half of the cirle while d is diameter of the whole circle

OpenStudy (booknerd1234):

yes
