Line 1: − The distance around a circle, equal to 3.1416 times the circle's diameter.<ref>Wile, Dr. Jay L. ''Exploring Creation With General Science''. Anderson: Apologia Educational Ministries, Inc. + − + − Many Christian commentators have questioned this, on Biblical grounds. In 1 Kings 7:23-26 and 2 Chronicles 4:2-5, the Bible describes how Solomon built the house of the Lord. In both passages, it says that he made a molten sea, round all about, ten cubits across and thirty cubits around. By this reasoning, it is hard to see how the secular value of pi can be maintained.+ − − 2000</ref> + + + +

'''Circumference''' is the distance around a [[circle]], equal to [[pi]] times the circle's [[diameter]].<ref>Wile, Dr. Jay L. ''Exploring Creation With General Science''. Anderson: Apologia Educational Ministries, Inc. 2000</ref>
The formula is written, algebraically, as follows: <math>\pi\ D </math>
where D is the circle's diameter.
Alternatively, it can be written as: <math>2 \pi\ r </math>
where 'r' is the circle's [[radius]].
