Given: $$\begin{aligned}C&=176\end{aligned}$$

Radius

The radius of a circle is given by the equation: $$\begin{aligned}C&=2 \pi r\end{aligned}$$ where $C$ is circumference and $r$ is radius.

Solution:$$\begin{aligned}C&=2 \pi r\\176&=2 \pi r\\r&=\frac{88}{\pi}\end{aligned}$$

A circle is a two dimensional figure that has no corners or edges. Its radius r is the distance between the center of the circle and any point on the circle. Its diameter d is twice the radius, forming a line segment passing through the center of the circle.

The circumference C, also known as perimeter P, of a circle is the distance around a circle. $$\begin{aligned} C &= 2 \pi r \\ &= \pi d \end{aligned}$$

The area A of a circle is the region enclosed inside it. $$A = \pi r^{2}$$
