diameter | distance across a circle through its center |
circumference | "perimeter" of a circle |
radius | one-half the length of the diameter, distance from center to circle |
centripetal | directed toward the center of a circle |
centripetal | directed away from the center of the circle |
tangential | at 90º angle to radiu at that point of the circle |
circumference formula | 2∏r |
2∏ radians | 360º, one complete circle |
