<u>Length of the Circumference</u>
Given a circle of radius r, the length of the circumference, or line surrounding the shape is:
The Earth has a diameter of 7,917.5 miles. The radius is half the diameter:
r=7,917.5/2=3,958.75 miles
Assuming a plane flies around the equator at ground level, the distance it would travel is:
L = 24,873.6 miles
