                        6) Divide the trial divisor 20 into the remainder 156. We Determine that 156
                            divided by 20 = 7.8. Adding 7 to 20 and the resulting trial divisor is 27; 27 x 7
                            = 189 which is larger than 156, so 7 is not used. Try 6 added to 20 and the
                            summation is 26 which is considered as a trial divisor; 26 x 6 = 156, which
                            equals our remainder.

                        7)  The answer has been found as 16. The square root of 256 is 16. The value

                     Calculating the Perimeter of the circle: Circumference

                        A circle is a simple closed shape. It is the set of all points (360 )  in a plane that are at a
                     given distance from a given point, the center; equivalently it is the curve traced out by a
                     point that moves so that its distance from a given point is constant. The distance between
                     any of the points and the center is called the radius.
                        A circle is a plane figure bounded by one line, and such that all right      C
                     lines drawn from a certain point within it to the bounding line, are
                     equal  (Euclid, Elements, Book I ). The bounding line is called its
                     circumference and the point, its center. More simply put a circle is a   ARC   R   RADIUS   Center
                     closed curve, every point of which is an equal distance from a point
                     within it called the center.  The perimeter of a circle (the bounding line)   DIAMET ER
                     is called its circumference, which encompasses the area of a circle.
                     The diameter is a straight line that passes from the circumference on       D
                     one side through the center of the circle to the other side. The radius is
                     a straight line from the center extending to the circumference of a
                     circle. Thus the diameter is twice as long as the radius and/or the   Figure 5.1  A Circle
                     radius is half the length of the diameter.  The arc of a circle is a
                     portion of the circumference of a circle. Measure an arc by two methods:
                     1) the measure of the central angle or 2) the length of the arc itself.

                            Arc: any connected part of the circle.  ARC
                            Center: the point equidistant from the points on the circle.
                            Circumference: the length of one circuit along the circle, or the distance around
                             the circle.   C
                            Diameter: a line segment whose endpoints lie on the circle and which passes
                             through the center; or the length of such a line segment, which is the largest
                             distance between any two points on the circle. It is a special case of a chord,
                             namely the longest chord, and it is twice the radius.   D
                            Radius: a line segment joining the center of the circle to any point on the circle
