Circle

A circle is a perfectly round, two-dimensional shape in geometry where all points are equidistant from a fixed central point called the center. The distance from the center to any point on the circle is called the radius, and twice the radius is the diameter. The circumference is the total distance around the circle, and it is calculated using the formula C = 2πr, where r is the radius. The area of a circle is given by A = πr².

Circles are commonly found in nature and human-made structures—such as wheels, clocks, and coins. They have unique mathematical properties and are essential in geometry, trigonometry, engineering, and art. In addition to their practical uses, circles often symbolize unity, infinity, and harmony due to their continuous, unbroken shape.

Radian [rad]

A radian is the standard SI unit for measuring angles based on the radius of a circle.

• 
  

  Definition:
  
  One radian is the angle subtended at the center of a circle by an arc whose length is equal to the radius of the circle.
