Different circle properties can change how we calculate the circumference of a circle. Let's break it down:

1. Radius and Diameter:

   • There are formulas to find the circumference:

     • If you use the radius (the distance from the center to the edge), the formula is:
       ( C = 2\pi r )
       (where ( \pi ) is a special number roughly equal to 3.14)
     • If you use the diameter (the distance across the circle through the center), the formula is:
       ( C = \pi d )
       (and the diameter ( d ) is twice the radius ( r ))

   • For example, if a circle has a radius of 5 units, you can find the circumference like this:
     ( C = 2\pi(5) = 10\pi )
     This is about 31.42 units.

2. Proportional Relationships:

   • If you make the radius bigger, the circumference grows too.
     For instance, if you double the radius, you also double the circumference.

Knowing these facts helps us solve real-world problems that involve circles.
