What is the radius of a square?

Question

The title asks it all

Answer 1

If we define the radius of a square to be the distance from the center of the square to one of the vertices (corners) you can compute the radius.

A square with sides of 1 will have a radius of √2/2
A square with sides of 's' will have a radius of (s * √2/2)

One definition of radius: "A line segment that joins the center of a regular polygon with any of its vertices."

Answer 2

The radius of a square is defined as the length of the segment from 1 corner of the square to it's center. If the square has a side of length s then the radius would be
s * sqrt(2)/2.

Answer 3

The radius of a square isn't something that's commonly talked about these days, but it's defined to be the distance from the center of the square to any one of the four corners. In other words, the radius of a square is equal to half of the length of one of its diagonals.

Hope this helps.

"Pie" is the name of a round, baked dessert. So I have no idea what "Pie Radius Squared" means. However, "pi radius squared" is one way to pronounce "π r^2", the area of a circle.

Answer 5

Note: pie is a dessert, pi is a Greek letter. Area of a circle = pi radius squared (or A = π r² )

Answer 6

squares don't have radius. The distance from the center to the edge is anywhere in between (s/2) and (s/2 * sqrt(2))

Answer 7

While the distance between opposite edges of a square often is named "diameter", the distance between the center and one of the edges is sometimes named "radius".

Answer 8

do you have the dimensions of the square? besides, squares don't have a radius; only circles do

Answer 9

a square can't have a radius only a circle can.

Answer 10

If the radius of a circle is half the diameter, then the radius of a square must be one half of any side, I think.
