[Woodcarver] Geometry question for the group

[Classic Carving Patterns]

Your very right, I was thinking backwards and forgot to convert.

It should have read:

A circle's circumference is equal to the diameter multiplied by pi
(3.14).
C=pi(d) 
So C/pi=d 
Radius is one half of the diameter.  d=1/2r
So C/pi=2r

Thanks!!!!!!!

Unfortunately the formula is in error.....Circumference=d X
pi......diameter MULTIPLIED by Pi (3.1416)
 

                Area=r2 X pi....1/2diameter equals radius (r)....r2 is
radius squared
