Radius to Circumference Formula

To find the circumference from a known radius, multiply the radius by 2π:

C = 2πr

The circumference C equals 2 times pi times the radius r. 2π is approximately 6.28318.

For example, find the circumference of a circle with a radius of 5:

C = 2π × 5 = 31.4159

The circumference of this circle is 31.4159.

Frequently Asked Questions

Multiply the radius by 2π (6.28318). The formula is C = 2πr. For example, a radius of 5 gives a circumference of 31.4159.

C = 2π × 10 = 62.8318. The circumference is approximately 62.83 units.

Yes, circumference is the specific term for a circle's perimeter — the total distance around the circle. Both terms refer to the same measurement.
