(1) The relation which describes the length of the circle, that means the circumgference is:
L = 2*pi*R, where L is the circumference, pi = 3.14... and R is the radius of the circle.
(2) First pi is the measure, in radians, of 180 degrees.
All relations concerning features of the circle are using the pythagorean number, pi = 3.14...
For example, the formula for finding the circumference of the circle, stated to the point (1) is using the number pi:
L = 2*pi*R
Another example is the calculus of the area of the circle:
A = pi*R^2
The features of all geometric figures are calculated depending on the pythagorean number pi.
The volume of a cylinder:
V = pi*R^2*h, where h is the generatrix of the cylinder.
