Answer: The exact circumference of the circle is
10\pi[\tex] in.</strong></p><p><strong>Step-by-step explanation:</strong></p><p>Since, the circumference of a circle is,</p><p>[tex]C=2\pi r

Where, r is the radius of the circle,

Here, r = 5 inches,

Hence, the circumference of the circle is,


C = 2\pi(5) = 10\pi\text{ in}

Thus, The exact circumference of the circle is [tex]10\pi[\tex] in.

If the given radius is 5 inches, then the circumference, C is 2pi r, or 2pi(5 inches) = 10pi inches.  You MUST include pi in your calculation of C.
