Answer:

Option A ( radius is twice the daimeter )

The relationship between radius and daimeter is given as

Radius² = Daimeter ⇒ r² = d

And cricumference can be calculated with radius

As circumference is 2πr

Answer: c. diameter is twice the radius

For example, if the radius is r = 10 feet then the diameter is twice that and it's d = 2*r = 2*10 = 20 feet.
