...surface in 22 the circle is -y- r*, or rather (3.14159) r2. It has been proved in a variety of ways that the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter is about 22 : 7, or, rather, 3.14159 : 1 ; wherefore, if c be the circumference, 22 c : 2r :: 22 : 7,... | |

...a circle equals the product of the circumference, by one-half the radius. It is proven in Geometry, that the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter is 3.14159, nearly. By means of this truth we deduce various rules for determining different parts of... | |

...else; just as 180 stands for the number one hundred and eighty, and for nothing else. 30. We proceed to prove that the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter is the same for all circles. The proof depends on the following important principle ; The length of the circumference of a circle... | |
