Year 6 Circumference and Area of Circles Worksheet — Level 3 — Practice Set 3 — Answers

Show your working. Use the π button on your calculator and round to 1 decimal place unless told otherwise.

1.Find the area of a semicircle with a radius of 7 cm, correct to 1 decimal place.

Answer: 77.0 cm2

  1. A = ½ × π × r2 = ½ × π × 49
  2. ≈ 77.0 cm2
2.A circle has a diameter of 8 cm. Find its area, correct to 1 decimal place.

Answer: 50.3 cm2

  1. r = 8 ÷ 2 = 4 cm
  2. A = π × r2 = π × 42 = π × 16
  3. ≈ 50.3 cm2
3.A circle has a radius of 20 cm. Find its area, correct to 1 decimal place.

Answer: 1256.6 cm2

  1. A = π × r2 = π × 202 = π × 400
  2. ≈ 1256.6 cm2
4.Find the area of a semicircle with a radius of 11 cm, correct to 1 decimal place.

Answer: 190.1 cm2

  1. A = ½ × π × r2 = ½ × π × 121
  2. ≈ 190.1 cm2
5.A circle has a radius of 13 cm. Find its area, correct to 1 decimal place.

Answer: 530.9 cm2

  1. A = π × r2 = π × 132 = π × 169
  2. ≈ 530.9 cm2
6.A circle has a diameter of 20 cm. Find its area, correct to 1 decimal place.

Answer: 314.2 cm2

  1. r = 20 ÷ 2 = 10 cm
  2. A = π × r2 = π × 102 = π × 100
  3. ≈ 314.2 cm2
7.A circle has a diameter of 32 cm. Find its area, correct to 1 decimal place.

Answer: 804.2 cm2

  1. r = 32 ÷ 2 = 16 cm
  2. A = π × r2 = π × 162 = π × 256
  3. ≈ 804.2 cm2
8.A circle has a circumference of 4π cm. Find its radius and its area (leave the area in terms of π).

Answer: r = 2 cm; A = 4π cm2

  1. C = 2πr, so 2πr = 4π
  2. r = 2 cm
  3. A = πr2 = 4π cm2
9.A circle has a circumference of 18π cm. Find its radius and its area (leave the area in terms of π).

Answer: r = 9 cm; A = 81π cm2

  1. C = 2πr, so 2πr = 18π
  2. r = 9 cm
  3. A = πr2 = 81π cm2
10.Find the area of a semicircle with a radius of 20 cm, correct to 1 decimal place.

Answer: 628.3 cm2

  1. A = ½ × π × r2 = ½ × π × 400
  2. ≈ 628.3 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.
