Skill 50 Calculate the Measures of a Circle, a Sphere, or a Cylinder
On the ASVAB, often there are questions that ask you to find certain measures of a circle. You may even have to calculate the volume of a sphere (a round three-dimensional object) or a cylinder (a solid with circular surfaces on either end). The good news is that there are no sides to add up!
Let’s start by defining some terms.
• The radius of a circle is the distance from the center to any point on the edge.

• The circumference of a circle is the distance around its outside edge. The circumference is the ...
