What is Center, Radius and Diameter of a Circle?

Definition of Center of a Circle, Radius of a Circle and Diameter of a Circle

The origin or center of a circle is the center point in a circle from which all the distances to the points on the circle are equal.

The radius of a circle is a straight line joining the origin or center of a circle to any point on the circle.

The diameter of a Circle is a straight line joining any two points on the circle such that it passes through the center or origin of a circle.
 
Radius of a circle is half of its diameter.
That is, 
Radius=\frac{Diameter}2
 
 
Or conversely, diameter of a circle is double of its radius. 
Diameter=2\times Radius
