Here we will answer the following three questions. a) What is 27Pi? (What is 27π?), b) What is the area of a circle if the radius is 27?, and c) What is the circumference of circle if the radius is 27?
27π is another way of writing 27 times Pi (27 x 3.14). Therefore, the answer to our first question is:
27π = 84.82
Area: Next, we will calculate the area of a circle if the radius is 27. The formula for the area of a circle is πr2, which means that the area of a circle with a radius of 27 is:
π272 = 2290.22
Circumference: Finally, we will calculate the circumference of a circle if the radius is 27. The formula for the circumference of a circle is 2πr, which means that the circumference of a circle with a radius of 27 is:
2π27 = 169.65
Note: π or Pi has an infinite number of decimals. For our calculations on this page with a radius of 27, we used Pi with eleven decimals as 3.14159265358 and then we rounded all our answers to two decimals.
Helpful Definitions:
Radius: The distance between the center of a circle to the edge of the circle. In our example on this page it was 27.
Diameter: The distance between one side of a circle to the exact opposite side of the circle. This is the same as 2 times radius. (For example, if the radius is 27, then the diameter must be 54.)
Pi: The ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter. This is a fixed number regardless of circle size.
We used the following formulas on this page, where A is Area of circle, C is Circumference of circle, and r is radius:
A = πr2
C = 2πr
