Study Notes
- A circle in Geometry is defined as the set of points equidistant from a single point, forming a continuous shape.
- The center of a circle is the original point, and the distance from the center to any point on the circle is called the radius.
- The diameter of a circle is the distance across it, always being twice the length of the radius.
- The perimeter of a circle is known as the circumference, the distance around the circle.
- Pi (π) is a special number representing the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter, approximately equal to 3.14.
- Pi is an irrational number with decimal digits that never end or repeat, making it infinitely accurate.
- The value of Pi is commonly rounded to 3.14 for most math calculations, but it continues indefinitely.
