    8.2 the circumference of a circle

    Learning objective

    You will be able to .


    Know and use the formula for the circumference of a circle.
    Circumference of a Circle
    • What we know about a circle?

    • One curved edge


    • No straight
    edges
    • No corners
    Circumference of a Circle
    We can measure the distance straight across the centre of the
    circle.

    10cm

    This is called the


    diameter.
    Circumference of a Circle
    We can also measure a circle from the centre point to the edge.

    5cm

    This is called the radius.


    Circumference of a Circle
    Sometimes it is important to measure the distance around the
    outside of the circle.

    This is called the


    circumference.

    But how could we do this?


    Circumference of a Circle
    We could use a piece of string, place it around the outside of the
    circle and then measure the length.

    What problems could we


    have with this?
    Circumference of a Circle
    To help us we can also use a calculation.

    • For this calculation we need to use


    something called Pi.
    • This can be shown as a symbol - π
    • Pi represents a number, which
    equals 3.141592
    • We can round this to 3.14 for our
    circumference calculation.
    Circumference of a Circle
    Circumference of a circle = π x diameter

    • This can also be written as C = πd


    • C = 3.14 x d

    The diameter of this circle is 10cm.


    The calculation would be:
    10cm
    C=πxd
    C = 3.14 x 10
    C = 31.4 cm
    Circumference of a Circle
    Instead of using the diameter to work out the circumference how else
    could we do it?
    • We could use the radius to calculate the
    circumference.

    So the calculation would be:


    C = 2π r
    5cm
    C=2xπ xr
    C = 2 x 3.14 x r
    Circumference of a Circle
    Using the same circle as the previous example, let’s work out the
    circumference using the radius.

    C = 2 π r
    C = 2 x 3.14 x 5
    C = 6.28 x 5
    5cm C = 31.4 cm

    Or

    C = 3.14 x 2 x 5
    C = 3.14 x 10
    C = 31.4 cm
