How are the radius and the diameter of a circle related? If needed, draw a picture on a piece of paper to help you explain.

Hello!

The radius is the distance from the center of a circle to the edge of a circle. The diameter is the distance across the center. The radius is always half of the diameter, as it is halfway across the circle.

I hope this helps!
