11. Area and Circumference of Circles5 4 3 2 1
Area and Circumference of Circles
I can label the Radius, Diameter and Circumference of a circle.
I know roughly how many times bigger the Circumference is than the Diameter and I can use this information to roughly estimate the Circumference of a Circle.
I can use 𝜋 to calculate the area and circumference of a circle.
I can use the formulae for the Area and Circumference of a circle to calculate the radius or diameter when I know the Area or the Circumference.
I can use 𝜋 to find the Area and Perimeter of a semi circle and a quarter of a circle.
