Radius

In classical geometry, a radius of a circle or sphere is any line segment from its center to its perimeter. By extension, the radius of a circle or sphere is the length of any such segment. The radius is half the diameter. In science and engineering the term radius of curvature is commonly used as a synonym for radius. More generally—in geometry, engineering, graph theory, and many other contexts—the radius of something is the distance from its center or axis of symmetry to its outermost points. In this case, the radius may be more than half the diameter.The relationship between the radius and the circumference of a circle is r=frac.To compute the radius of a circle going through three points P_1, P_2, P_3, the following formula can be used:

r=frac
where heta is the angle angle P_1 P_2 P_3.Category:Geometryar:شعاعast:Radiu zh-min-nan:Poàⁿ-kèngbs:Poluprečnikbg:Радиусca:Radi cs:Poloměrda:Radius de:Radiusel:Ακτίνα es:Radio eo:Radiusoeu:Erradio fr:Rayon gl:Raio ko:반지름id:Radiusis:Geisli it:Raggio he:רדיוסsw:Nusukipenyolv:Rādiusslb:Radiuslt:Spindulysmk:Радиусnl:Straal ja:半径no:Radiusnn:Radiuspl:Promieńpt:Raioro:Razăqu:Illwaru:Радиусsimple:Radiussk:Polomer sl:Polmersr:Полупречникfi:Sädesv:Radieta:ஆரம்th:รัศมีvi:Bán kínhtr:Yarıçapuk:Радіусzh:半径 Radon Radon is a chemical element that has the symbol Rn and atomic number 86. Radon is a radioactive noble gas that is formed by the decay of radium. It is one of the heaviest gases and is considered to be a health hazard. The most stable isotope is 222Rn which has a half-life of 3.8 days and is used in radiotherapy. Radon is a significant contaminant that affects indoor air quality worldwide. Radon gas from natural sources can accumulate in buildings and reportedly causes 21,000 lung cancer deaths per year in the United States alone. (From the Wikpedia article Radius.)
