A line segment that passes through a circle’s center connecting two points on the circle is called a diameter. The diameter is twice as long as the radius. The size of a circle can be measured in two ways. The distance around a circle is called its circumference. Archimedes discovered that for circles of all different sizes, dividing the circumference by the diameter always gives the same number.
