Since the radius is 8, the diameter is 16, since the diameter is twice the radius, and in exact terms, the circumference would be 16 pi, but estimated, the circumference would be 50.24 yds.

Find the circumference of the circle and show work. [refer to

attachment]


\large\blue\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\underline{Answer and How to Solve:-}}}}

Formula for Circumference of a Circle:-


\dashrightarrow\star\bigstar\boxed{\boxed{C=2\pi r}}}

Where

  • C = circumference
  • π = pi (3.14…)
  • r = radius, which in this case is equal to 8

Substitute the value of r and solve:-

C=2π(8)

On simplification,

C=16π

On further simplification,

C=50.3

Therefore, we conclude that the circumference of this circle is


\dashrightarrow\star\bigstar\boxed{\boxed{\underline{\bold{C=50.3\:yd}}}}\bigstar\star\dashleftarrow

Good luck.
