Let’s investigate…
We can use a ruler to measure the diameter.
How can we measure the circumference?

Look at the column circumference ÷ diameter
circumference ÷ diameter is roughly 3.14

Let’s investigate…
circumference ÷ diameter is roughly
There isn’t an exact answer for this. It actually goes on forever!
We’ll stop here since it would stretch for 600
miles if we printed them all!
In 1989 a computer worked it out to 480 million decimal places.
3.14

The CircumferenceIf it goes on for ever
how can I write it down?
We use the Greek letter
instead.
MathematicalGenius!
This is called pi.

3.1415926535So circumference ÷ diameter =
Circumference =
x diameter
By re-arranging this we get:
C =
d
The Circumference

This button stores to 8 or 9 decimal places which is more than accurate enough!

When doing circle calculations, you will normally use a calculator.
Some calculators have a button like this:
If your calculator doesn’t haveThen use 3.14 instead.
The Circumference

Example 1
6cm
What is the circumference of this circle?
C = dC = x 6
Press
Then x 6 =
C = 18.8cm
![Page 12: Introduction to circles](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56813696550346895d9e243b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Example 2
5cm
What is the circumference of this circle?
C = d
C = x 10
Remember: diameter = 2 x
radius
C = 31.4cm
d = 2 x 5 = 10cm
10cm

Area of a circle
To find the area we could try counting the squares inside the circle…

Area of a circle
A = r²
Area =
x radius
x radius
There is a special formula for the area of a circle.
Remember:r² means r x r
![Page 15: Introduction to circles](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56813696550346895d9e243b/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Example 1
What is the area of this circle?
A = r²A = x 4 x 4
Press
Then x 4 x4 =
A = 50.3m²4m
![Page 16: Introduction to circles](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56813696550346895d9e243b/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Example 2
What is the area of this circle?
A = r²
A = x 7 x 7
Press
Then x 7 x 7 =
A = 153.9cm²14cm
?7cm
r = ½ x 14 = 7cm Don’tforget!

24m
Example 3
What is the area of this semi-circle?
A = r²
A = x 12 x 12
A semicircle is half a circle.
A = 452.4m²
?12m
r = ½ x 24 = 12m Don’tforget!
Area of semi-circle
= ½ x 452.4
First work out area of full
circle.
=226.2m²

What do you get when you take the circumference of an apple and divide it by the diameter of the apple?
