Show your working. Use the π button on your calculator and round to 1 decimal place unless told otherwise.
1.A circle has a diameter of 34 cm. Find its area, correct to 1 decimal place.
Answer: 907.9 cm2
- r = 34 ÷ 2 = 17 cm
- A = π × r2 = π × 172 = π × 289
- ≈ 907.9 cm2
2.A circle has a diameter of 12 cm. Find its circumference, correct to 1 decimal place.
Answer: 37.7 cm
- C = π × d = π × 12
- ≈ 37.7 cm
3.A circle has a diameter of 38 cm. Find its area, correct to 1 decimal place.
Answer: 1134.1 cm2
- r = 38 ÷ 2 = 19 cm
- A = π × r2 = π × 192 = π × 361
- ≈ 1134.1 cm2
4.A circle has a diameter of 30 cm. Find its area, correct to 1 decimal place.
Answer: 706.9 cm2
- r = 30 ÷ 2 = 15 cm
- A = π × r2 = π × 152 = π × 225
- ≈ 706.9 cm2
5.A circle has a radius of 19 cm. What is its diameter?
Answer: 38 cm
The diameter is twice the radius.
6.A circle has a diameter of 30 cm. Find its circumference, correct to 1 decimal place.
Answer: 94.2 cm
- C = π × d = π × 30
- ≈ 94.2 cm
7.A circle has a diameter of 6 cm. What is its radius?
Answer: 3 cm
The radius is half the diameter.
8.A circle has a diameter of 32 cm. Find its area, correct to 1 decimal place.
Answer: 804.2 cm2
- r = 32 ÷ 2 = 16 cm
- A = π × r2 = π × 162 = π × 256
- ≈ 804.2 cm2
9.A circle has a diameter of 24 cm. What is its radius?
Answer: 12 cm
The radius is half the diameter.
10.A circle has a radius of 6 cm. Find its area, correct to 1 decimal place.
Answer: 113.1 cm2
- A = π × r2 = π × 62 = π × 36
- ≈ 113.1 cm2
Marking tips
- Give credit for correct method even when the final answer slips — the working shows where the thinking went right.
- For open-ended tasks, use the success criteria as a checklist rather than looking for one "right" answer.
- Celebrate what went well first, then pick one thing to work on next.
