A circle in a square 2020-04-02
Sabra pose la question :
Hello, I have twins in the 7th grade that are learning how to find circumference of circles. I am struggling with figuring out how to help my children to find the answer to this question:

Tye has a square piece of yellow felt that has an area of 81 square inches. She wants to cut the largest circle possible from the material to create a sun for her art project. What is the area of the felt circle? Use 3.14 for pi. Round to the nearest hundredth if necessary.

I wasn't sure if I am to find the area of the circle through finding the area of the square or what steps we needed to follow to find the answer. Once I can see how one is worked out step-by-step, I usually can help them along with questions that are similar.

The diameter and circumference of a circle 2015-09-01
Tracey pose la question :
Hello,
I own a custom workroom, I am figuring out fabric quantities or an estimate. When at the job site, I forgot to measure the diameter of the semi circle shape that I have to make a cushion for!!!
If the circumference of the semi circle is 165" what would the diameter be, maybe half this measurement????

I appreciate any help...I basically need the width from left to right to see if I can fit the cushion on one width of fabric that is 52" wide!

Measurements on a test tube 2007-10-30
Bruce pose la question :
I figure that the surface area (SA) of a round bottom test tube can be determined by the equation SA = 2pi*h*r where r is the radius of the hemispheric bottom & column part, and h is the height (h) at any point upwards from the bottommost portion in the center of the tube.

I haven't been able to come up with an equation yet for the circumference of such a test tube at any point upwards along the tube based on the height in its center or on the distance along the outside of the tube.

Circles, cirmcuference and area 1999-05-16
Stephen Ehrler pose la question :
I would appreciate if you could please tell me if what I discovered here is something or my ignorance? I noticed that a circle with r radii has the folling characteristic.

r = [2 * ( pi * r2 / pi * 2r)]

The equation states that the ratio of a circles area over its circumfrence = 1/2 that of the circles radii. It works every time. Did you know this ? Is it some kind of therom and can it be used for any thing? I thought this was intresting and would appreciate any input you may have.
Thank you.
