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

1.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
2.A circle has a diameter of 20 cm. What is its radius?

Answer: 10 cm

The radius is half the diameter.

3.A circle has a radius of 10 cm. What is its diameter?

Answer: 20 cm

The diameter is twice the radius.

4.A circle has a radius of 9 cm. Find its circumference, correct to 1 decimal place.

Answer: 56.5 cm

  1. C = 2 × π × r = 2 × π × 9
  2. ≈ 56.5 cm
5.A circle has a radius of 11 cm. Find its area, correct to 1 decimal place.

Answer: 380.1 cm2

  1. A = π × r2 = π × 112 = π × 121
  2. ≈ 380.1 cm2
6.A circle has a radius of 20 cm. What is its diameter?

Answer: 40 cm

The diameter is twice the radius.

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.
