Now it's time to take some notes. In your notebook, you should label a section called Circumference and Area of Circles. Please write today's date as well. In your notes, you should write down the definititions of:
Radius -
Diameter -
Circumference -
Pi -
Remember to leave enough room for a definition and picture! Complete the following lesson to get your definitions.
Radius, diameter, & circumference

“Lines” of latitude on Earth are actually circles. The Tropic of Cancer is the northernmost line of latitude at which the Sun appears directly overhead at noon. The Tropic of Cancer has a radius of 5854 kilometers.



To qualify for an around-the-world speed record, a pilot must cover a distance no less than the circumference of the Tropic of Cancer, cross all meridians, and land on the same airfield where she started.

Write an equation to solve for the minimum distance that a pilot must fly to qualify for an around-the-world speed record? Use parantheses to denote multiplication.
