Is it possible for a circle to have the following approximate measurements? Diameter: 1.8 mm Circumference: 5.6 mm Explain.
A. Yes, a circle can have those measurements. The ratio of the circumference to the diameter is approximately 3.1, which is close to the value of π.
B. No, a circle cannot have those measurements. Millimeters are too small of a unit to measure, so it would be impossible to measure the diameter and circumference of a circle of that size.
C. Yes, a circle can have those measurements. So long as the circumference is greater than the diameter, a circle can have any measurements for diameter and circumference.
D. No, a circle cannot have those measurements. The ratio of the circumference to the diameter is approximately 0.32, which is not close to the value of π.

For a circle we have to see the measurements of the circumference and the diameter by calculating their ratio.
Option A is correct as the ratio of circumference to diameter is π. and option A is giving the value of π.
