Given the formula for the circumferen ce a circle C ÷2 pi r,how Would you rearrange the formula if you were interested in finding the radius episode

1 answer

To rearrange the formula for the circumference of a circle, which is given by:

\[ C = 2 \pi r \]

to find the radius \( r \), you can isolate \( r \) on one side of the equation. Here’s how to do it step-by-step:

  1. Start with the original formula: \[ C = 2 \pi r \]

  2. Divide both sides by \( 2 \pi \) to solve for \( r \): \[ r = \frac{C}{2 \pi} \]

Now you have the formula to find the radius \( r \) in terms of the circumference \( C \): \[ r = \frac{C}{2 \pi} \]
