h = the height of the semi-ellipsoid from the base cicle's center to the edge Solid paraboloid of revolution around z-axis: a = the radius of the base circle h = the height of the paboloid from the base cicle's center to the edge
Apothem of a hexagon Graphs of side, s; apothem, a; and area, A of regular polygons of n sides and circumradius 1, with the base, b of a rectangle with the same area. The green line shows the case n = 6. The apothem (sometimes abbreviated as apo [1]) of a regular polygon is a line
The same formula holds for any three-dimensional objects, except that each should be the volume of , rather than its area. It also holds for any subset of R d , {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{d},} for any dimension d , {\displaystyle d,} with the areas replaced by the d {\displaystyle d} -dimensional measures of the parts.
The polar of any figurative point is on the centre of the conic and is called a 'diameter'. The centre of any ellipse is within it, for its polar does not meet the curve, and so there are no tangents from it to the curve. The centre of a parabola is the contact point of the figurative straight.
Hence, given the radius, r, center, P c, a point on the circle, P 0 and a unit normal of the plane containing the circle, ^, one parametric equation of the circle starting from the point P 0 and proceeding in a positively oriented (i.e., right-handed) sense about ^ is the following:
Another generalization is to calculate the number of coprime integer solutions , to the inequality m 2 + n 2 ≤ r 2 . {\displaystyle m^{2}+n^{2}\leq r^{2}.\,} This problem is known as the primitive circle problem , as it involves searching for primitive solutions to the original circle problem.

To calculate a circle's perimeter, knowledge of its radius or diameter and the number π suffices. The problem is that π is not rational (it cannot be expressed as the quotient of two integers ), nor is it algebraic (it is not a root of a polynomial equation with rational coefficients).
The area of a regular polygon is half its perimeter multiplied by the distance from its center to its sides, and because the sequence tends to a circle, the corresponding formula–that the area is half the circumference times the radius–namely, A = 1 / 2 × 2πr × r, holds for a circle.
