    The document describes an activity where students measured the circumference and diameter of several cans to observe their relationship. They found that despite the different sizes, dividing the circumference by the diameter for each can resulted in approximately 3.14. This demonstrated that pi is a constant ratio between the circumference and diameter of any circle. The relationship between circumference (c) and diameter (d) of a circle is represented by the formula π=c/d.

    EGE 16 – Teaching Math in the Intermediate Grades

    UNIT 1 – ACTIVITY

    CIRCUMFERENCE
    CAN DIAMETER (d) c/d
    (c)

    A 210 cm 66.85 cm 3.14

    B 170 cm 54.11 cm 3.14

    C 168 cm 53.48 cm 3.14

    D 212 cm 67.48 cm 3.14

    1. What did you observed?


    - Despite of the different sizes of the cans, if you divide the circumference
    by the diameter, it will always be 3.14.

    2. Do you see any pattern?


    - Yes

    3. If you do, can you state the relationship between the circumference and
    diameter of a circle?
    - The pi or π is a constant equal to the circumference-to-diameter ratio of a
    circle (π=c/d). Thus, if you take any circle and get the length of its
    circumference and divide it to its diameter, you will always get the pi
    π=3.14.
