Supporting Idea 4: Geometry and Measurement
Geometry and Measurement
Objective: Identify and describe the parts of a circle (circumference, radius, or diameter).
A circle is a set of points equidistant from a given point.
The radius is a line segment that has one endpoint at the center and the other endpoint on the circle.
The diameter is a line segment that passes through the center of the circle and has both endpoints on the circle.
The circumference of a circle is the distance around the circle.
Examples:
SR is a radius of the circle. ST is also a radius of the circle.
S
R
T
is the diameter of the circle.
RT
The circumference of the circle is the distance around the circle from
point R to point R.
