radius is not equalling the correct diameter

hello,
I'm creating a simple centre point circle and I'm specifying @10,30 as the radius but when I measure the circle it's diameter is coming out at 20.88

what am I doing wrong here please?

thanks
Zac

@10,30 as the radius - it should read @10.30,0 if you want to get 20.60 as diameter.
Still, if I try it your way I don't get 20.88 but 60.2456.
So I guess you just don't have proper snaps on when measuring so the points are not caught exactly.
Activate Snap on Endpoints, also it is advisable to have Free Snap on.
