Task goals
- Convert between the radius and diameter of a circle.
- Calculate the circumference or area of a circle from its radius or diameter, using an approximate value of pi.
- Work backwards from a given circumference or area to find the circle's radius or diameter.
- Calculate the perimeter or area of a semicircle or quarter circle.
- Calculate the circumference or area of a circle, giving the answer exactly in terms of $\pi$, including a bicycle-wheel-style revolutions problem.
- Use the ratio between the radii of two circles to find the ratio of their circumferences or areas.
- Solve composite or real-world problems involving circles, such as the area of an annulus between two concentric circles, a shape inscribed in or around a circle, a circular sector's arc length and area, or the cost of concreting a path around a circular pond.
Teaching guidance
- Formula: Circumference = 2 x pi x r
- Formula: Area = pi x r^2
- Including quarter and half circles
- The constant pi is found by dividing a circle’s circumference by its
- diameter.
