Radius of the circle is half the diameter of the circle.
Circumference of the circle is 2πr
The value of πris3.14
Calculation:
Radius, r=10 inches
Circumference of the circle is 2πr
Change r=10andπ=3.142πr
2(3.14)(10)
203.14
Based on the definition,
Multiply the decimals as through they are whole numbers.
20314=6280
