Definition of Circumference

The circumference of a circle is its perimeter.

It measures the distance around the curvy edge of the circle.

The circumference of a circle depends on its radius \(r\). It is found using the formula

\(\text{circumference} = 2 \pi \text{(radius)}\)
In this formula, \(\pi\) is a constant that is equal to about \(3.14\).
