if the circumference is 12 pi what is the diameter
So,
The formula for the circumference of a circle:
\(C = 2 \pi r\ or\ C = \pi D (diameter)\)
We can now substitute the given values and solve for D.
\(12 \pi = \pi D\)
Divide both sides by pi.
\(12 = D\)
The diameter of the circle is 12 units.
well, since the equation for circumference is \(2 \pi r^{2}\) and the diameter is double the radius, the diameter will end up being about 3.82
