How to Calculate the Circumference of a Circle

Subject: Mathematics

Book: Maths Mastery

The circumference of a circle—the distance around its outer edge—is pivotal in measuring circular objects like wheels, plates, or rings. The formula is C = 2πr (or πd), where r is the radius and d is the diameter. For example, if the diameter is 10 cm, the circumference is π × 10 = 10π cm. This calculation is vital in fields such as manufacturing tires, designing circular pathways, or analyzing circular motion in physics. By pairing circumference with area, you gain a holistic grasp of circle properties essential in academic and real-world tasks.
