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 14 cm. What is its radius?
Answer: 7 cm
The radius is half the diameter.
2.A circle has a diameter of 12 cm. Find its area, correct to 1 decimal place.
Answer: 113.1 cm2
- r = 12 ÷ 2 = 6 cm
- A = π × r2 = π × 62 = π × 36
- ≈ 113.1 cm2
3.A circle has a radius of 13 cm. Find its area, correct to 1 decimal place.
Answer: 530.9 cm2
- A = π × r2 = π × 132 = π × 169
- ≈ 530.9 cm2
4.A circle has a radius of 15 cm. Find its circumference, correct to 1 decimal place.
Answer: 94.2 cm
- C = 2 × π × r = 2 × π × 15
- ≈ 94.2 cm
5.A circle has a diameter of 6 cm. Find its circumference, correct to 1 decimal place.
Answer: 18.8 cm
- C = π × d = π × 6
- ≈ 18.8 cm
6.A circle has a diameter of 28 cm. Find its circumference, correct to 1 decimal place.
Answer: 88.0 cm
- C = π × d = π × 28
- ≈ 88.0 cm
7.A circle has a diameter of 10 cm. Find its circumference, correct to 1 decimal place.
Answer: 31.4 cm
- C = π × d = π × 10
- ≈ 31.4 cm
8.A circle has a diameter of 16 cm. Find its area, correct to 1 decimal place.
Answer: 201.1 cm2
- r = 16 ÷ 2 = 8 cm
- A = π × r2 = π × 82 = π × 64
- ≈ 201.1 cm2
9.A circle has a diameter of 10 cm. What is its radius?
Answer: 5 cm
The radius is half the diameter.
10.A circle has a diameter of 8 cm. Find its circumference, correct to 1 decimal place.
Answer: 25.1 cm
- C = π × d = π × 8
- ≈ 25.1 cm
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.
