Examples with solutions for Circumference: Calculate The Missing Side based on the formula

Exercise #1

The circumference of a circle is 14.

How long is the circle's radius?

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

We begin by using the formula:

P=2πr P=2\pi r

We then insert the given data into the formula:

14=2×π×r 14=2\times\pi\times r

Lastly we divide Pi by 2:

142π=2πr2π \frac{14}{2\pi}=\frac{2\pi r}{2\pi}

7π=r \frac{7}{\pi}=r

Answer

7π \frac{7}{\pi}

Exercise #2

A circle has a circumference of 31.41.

What is its radius?

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve the exercise, first we must remember the circumference formula:

P=2πR P= 2\pi R

P is the circumference and Pi has a value of 3.14 (approximately).

We substitute in the known data:

31.41=23.141R 31.41=2\cdot3.141\cdot R

Keep in mind that the result can be easily simplified using Pi:

31.413.141=2R \frac{31.41}{3.141}=2R

10=2R 10=2R

Finally, we simplify by 2:

5=R 5=R

Answer

5

Exercise #3

A circle has a circumference of 50.25.

What is its radius?

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

We use the formula:

P=2πr P=2\pi r

We insert the known data into the formula:

50.25=3.14×2r 50.25=3.14\times2r

50.25=2×r×3.14 50.25=2\times r\times3.14

50.25=6.28r 50.25=6.28r

50.256.28=6.28r6.28 \frac{50.25}{6.28}=\frac{6.28r}{6.28}

r=8 r=8

Answer

8
