COMMENTS
Circumference of the circumcircle of the square whose sides = 2.
Hypotenuse of the right isosceles triangle with the two legs = 2*Pi.
Perimeter of the closed curve with implicit Cartesian equation x^2 + y^2 = abs(x) + abs(y). This curve in the first quadrant is the half-circle with equation (x-1/2)^2 + (y-1/2)^2 = 1/2, hence, the curve is the union of 4 identical half-circles with diameter = sqrt(2) obtained by symmetries. (See link Curve.)
S. Ramanujan produced a curious approximation to 2*Pi*sqrt(2) by dividing 99^2 by 1103 (see link Prime Curios! and A343393).
