Hi

How is circular surface area values square rooted ??. I am using this formula r2Xπ=mm2 to calculate the surface area of a circle but i want to know if there is a formula to get back to the diameter or the radius of the circle ?.

example i have a circular surface area of 5.26mm2 and i want the diameter of that value, how do i solve this ?

Thanks in advance

S=\pi r^2 \Rightarrow r^2=\frac{S}{\pi} \Rightarrow r=\sqrt{\frac{S}{\pi}}

Thanks for the replay Shyan.

a circel with a diameter of 1.29mm 0.6452π = 1.30 The formula you mentioned √s/π gives a value of 0.362.. ?

Could you show me an example, I would be very thanks full

Careful boy! Its not r=\frac{\sqrt{S}}{\pi}, its r=\sqrt{\frac{S}{\pi}}.

We don't call it "surface area" - just area. Surface area applies to surfaces in three dimensions. For objects in the plane (two dimensions), we talk about the area.

The actual formula is ##A = \pi r^2##. If r is given in mm., then the units of area will be square millimeters or mm2. The formula shouldn't explicitly show units.

From the equation ##A = \pi r^2##, to get the radius, solve for r. To do this, divide both sides of the equation by ##\pi##, then take the square root. Once you have the radius r, you can get the diameter using d = 2r.

Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. In Dirac’s Principles of Quantum Mechanics published in 1930 he introduced a “convenient notation” he referred to as a “delta function” which he treated as a continuum analog to the discrete Kronecker delta. The Kronecker delta is simply the indexed components of the identity operator in matrix algebra Source: https://www.physicsforums.com/insights/what-exactly-is-diracs-delta-function/ by...
Fermat's Last Theorem has long been one of the most famous mathematical problems, and is now one of the most famous theorems. It simply states that the equation $$ a^n+b^n=c^n $$ has no solutions with positive integers if ##n>2.## It was named after Pierre de Fermat (1607-1665). The problem itself stems from the book Arithmetica by Diophantus of Alexandria. It gained popularity because Fermat noted in his copy "Cubum autem in duos cubos, aut quadratoquadratum in duos quadratoquadratos, et...
Thread 'Imaginary Pythagorus'
I posted this in the Lame Math thread, but it's got me thinking. Is there any validity to this? Or is it really just a mathematical trick? Naively, I see that i2 + plus 12 does equal zero2. But does this have a meaning? I know one can treat the imaginary number line as just another axis like the reals, but does that mean this does represent a triangle in the complex plane with a hypotenuse of length zero? Ibix offered a rendering of the diagram using what I assume is matrix* notation...
