6. It is proved in Geometry that the ratio of the circumference of any circle to its diameter is about 3y, or more accurately 3.1416. If then, the diameter of a circle is known, how may the circumference be found without measurement? Book III - Page 80by George William Myers - 1908Full view - About this book
