Find Radius and Diameter
Answer: QV = 10.5 cm
d = 2r Diameter Formula
21 = 2r d = 21
10.5 = r Simplify.
If RT = 21 cm, what is the length of QV?
RT is a diameter and QV is a radius.
Find Measures in Intersecting Circles
First, find ZY.
WZ + ZY = WY
5 + ZY = 8
ZY = 3
Next, find XY.
XZ + ZY = XY
11 + 3 = XY
14 = XY
Since the diameter of is 16 units, WY = 8. Similarly, the diameter of is 22 units, so XZ = 11. WZ is part of radius XZ and part of radius WY.
Find Circumference
CROP CIRCLES A series of crop circles was discovered in Alberta, Canada, on September 4, 1999. The largest of the three circles had a radius of 30 feet. Find its circumference.
Since the radius is 30 feet, and d = 2r, the diameter = 2(30) or 60 feet.
C = d Circumference formula
= (60) Substitution
= 60 Simplify.
≈ 188.50 Use a calculator.Answer: The circumference of the crop circle is 60
feet or about 188.50 feet.
A. 377.0 feet
B. 392.5 feet
C. 408.3 feet
D. 422.1 feet
