Answer:

The circumference of the circle is 25.12 meters

Explanation:

By definition, the circumference of a circle is the perimeter or the length around the circle.

To find the circumference of a circle, all we need to do is multiply the radius by pi and 2. Giving us the equation :

C = 2 * pi * r

We are also given that the diameter of the circle is 8 meters. With this, we can cut it in half to get the radius. 8 / 2 = 4

Now, we plug in our values:

2 * 3.14 * 4

When we evaluate this, we get the answer to be : 25.12

The circumference of the circle is 25.12 meters

Extra references for the definitions of radius and circumference.

The radius is the length from the center of the circle, to the outside (perimeter aka circumference point) of it. The diameter is the length across one end of the circle, to the other end, crossing through the center point.
