How statement and proof provenance work
The first chip identifies the source of the statement or construction; the second identifies the source of its local proof or verification.
- Literature-sourced: the exact statement appears in a cited source; only wording and notation differ.
- AI-adapted: a semantically identical restatement of literature-sourced material, modulo indexing, notation, and boundary cases adopted by the library.
- AI-generated: a genuinely novel statement formulated by AI, with no source for the claim itself.
These labels describe origin, not correctness: citations and verification chips remain separate evidence.
Every circle has circumference 2 pi r and circumference-to-diameter ratio pi
Statement
For every centre and radius , the once-traversed circle has circumference
Since its diameter is , one has .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: A centre , a real , and the once-around path on .
Circumference is the length of this once-around path, and diameter is (Circular arcs, circumference as arc length, and diameter).
Vector differentiation is componentwise (The derivative and the Riemann integral of a vector-valued function: an intrinsic derivative and a componentwise integral).
A path has length equal to the integral of its speed (If is continuous, differentiable on , and extends continuously to , then ).
The integral of a constant on is (If on then for every partition ; in particular every constant function is integrable, with ).
Every once-traversed unit semicircle has length (The arc length of a unit semicircle is pi).
Proof
By [L2] and [L3], and , since .
By [L1], [L4], and [L5], .
Because , the diameter is nonzero, and step 2.1 gives .
At , step 2.1 gives circumference , agreeing with the sum of the two semicircle lengths from [L6].
