the distance around a meteor crater is 9,622 ft. find the diameter
Since the distance around, or circumference, is 9, 622 ft. you need to use the formula for circumference to find the answer.
So...
9,622=\(\pi\)×diameter
9,622÷\(\pi\) = diameter
diameter = 3062.77772486 feet
Okay, we need to use the circumference formula. It's C = 2 pi r.
We rearrange it to isolate r. r = c/2pi
r = 9,622/2pi
r = 1532.12
Diameter is twice radius, so
1532.12 x 2 = 3064 feet.
