Excerpt from Plane and Solid Geometry
For distinctness, the curve that forms the circle is often called the circumference of the circle. The position of the fixed point of the compasses is called the center of the circle. Any portion of the circumference is called an arc of the circle. The distance from the center to the circumference, which is the same all the way around the circle, is called the radius.
