Math Problem Statement
How would you find the radius if only the diameter was given?
Solution
To find the radius of a circle if only the diameter is given, you simply divide the diameter by 2.
Formula:
Example:
If the diameter is 12 units (as calculated from the previous problem):
Conclusion:
The radius is half the length of the diameter.

Here are 5 related questions:
- What is the diameter if the radius is known to be 7 units?
- How would you express the circumference of a circle in terms of its radius?
- Can you derive the area of a circle using the radius?
- How does doubling the radius affect the diameter?
- If a circle's radius is increased by 2 units, how does that impact its diameter?
Tip: Understanding the relationship between radius and diameter is crucial, as many circle-related formulas (like circumference and area) use either or both.
