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:
-
Start with the original formula: \[ C = 2 \pi r \]
-
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 \( C \): \[ r = \frac{C}{2 \pi} \]
