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 circumference, correct to 1 decimal place.
Answer: 106.8 cm
- C = π × d = π × 34
- ≈ 106.8 cm
2.A circle has a radius of 12 cm. Find its area, correct to 1 decimal place.
Answer: 452.4 cm2
- A = π × r2 = π × 122 = π × 144
- ≈ 452.4 cm2
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 radius of 7 cm. Find its circumference, correct to 1 decimal place.
Answer: 44.0 cm
- C = 2 × π × r = 2 × π × 7
- ≈ 44.0 cm
5.A circle has a diameter of 36 cm. Find its area, correct to 1 decimal place.
Answer: 1017.9 cm2
- r = 36 ÷ 2 = 18 cm
- A = π × r2 = π × 182 = π × 324
- ≈ 1017.9 cm2
6.A circle has a diameter of 32 cm. Find its circumference, correct to 1 decimal place.
Answer: 100.5 cm
- C = π × d = π × 32
- ≈ 100.5 cm
7.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

- ≈ 12.6 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.
