To find the circumference of a circle, we use the formula:

$C = \pi \times d$

where:

• $C$ is the circumference,
• $d$ is the diameter,
• $\pi$ is approximately $3.1416$.

Given that the diameter $d = 169 \, \text{in}$, we substitute this into the formula:

$C = \pi \times 169 \approx 3.1416 \times 169$

$C \approx 531.47 \, \text{in}$

Rounded to the nearest whole number:

$C \approx 531 \, \text{in}$

So, the circumference of the circle is approximately 531 inches.

Here are a few related questions:

1. How would the circumference change if the diameter were doubled?
2. What is the area of a circle if the diameter is 169 inches?
3. How do you derive the formula for the circumference of a circle?
4. What is the relationship between the radius and diameter of a circle?
5. How can the circumference be calculated using the radius instead of the diameter?

Tip: If you ever need to estimate $\pi$ for rough calculations, using $3.14$ as an approximation is often good enough!
