How to measure the distance from center of a circle to the edge in openlayers

I want to give users the ability to find out how far they are from a Point of Interest to the edge of a radius on a map. I would also like to convert that unit to kilometers, meter or nautical mile. I understand that all polygons are drawn in meters. I am using fromCircle to convert a circle to a geometer polygon. Please help me. I remember there was a getbound() function in openlayers 2 but i can not find it anymore to use to calculate the distance form the the point of interest or center of the map to the edge. I have searched through stackoverflow for days but can not find exactly what is need or the solution that worked with the new version of openlayers.

 var vectorSource = vectorLayer.getSource();
    var centerLongitudeLatitude = map.getView().getCenter();
    var viewProjection = map.getView().getProjection();
    var pointResolution = olProj.getPointResolution(viewProjection, 1, centerLongitudeLatitude);
    console.log('pointResolution', pointResolution)
    function addCirclePolygon(coordinates, radius=1600) {
        var _radius = radius/pointResolution;
        // var circle = new Feature(new Circle(coordinates, _radius));
        var circle = new Feature(new Circle(coordinates, _radius));
        circle.setStyle(new Style({
            stroke: new Stroke({
                color: 'blue',
                width: 3
            }),
            fill: new Fill({
                color: 'rgba(0, 0, 255, 0.1)'
            })
        }));
        var geom=circle.get('geometry');
        if (circle instanceof Circle) {
            circle.set('geometry', fromCircle(geom));
        }
        vectorSource.addFeature(circle);
    }

Solution

The distance from a point to the edge of a ctrcle is the distance from the point to the center of the circle minus the radius.

But OpenLayers has a getClosestPoint method which will work with any geometry:

var point1 = point.getGeometry().getCoordinates();

var point2 = circle.getClosestPoint(point1);

Then you can calculate a distance using Pythagoras and adjust for point resolution:

var dx = point1[0] - point2[0];
var dy = point1[1] - point2[1];

var meters = Math.sqrt(dx * dx + dy * dy) * pointResolution;
