Let’s investigate…Look at the column
circumference ÷ diameter
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.

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

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 (1 d.p.)

Example 2
5cm
What is the circumference of this circle?
C = d
C = x 10
Remember: diameter = 2 x
radius
C = 31.4cm (1 d.p.)
d = 2 x 5 = 10cm

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
Example 1
What is the area of this circle?
A = r²A = x 4 x 4
Press
Then x 4 x4 =
A = 50.3m² (1 d.p.) 4m

Example 2
What is the area of this circle?
A = r²
A = x 7 x 7
Press
Then x 7 x 7 =
A = 153.9cm² (1 d.p.) 14cm
?7cm
r = ½ x 14 = 7cm Don’tforget!

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 (1 d.p.)
?12m
r = ½ x 24 = 12m Don’tforget!
Area of semi-circle
= ½ x 452.4
First work out area of full
circle.
