GCSE Maths Practice: circle-properties

Question 1 of 10

\( \begin{array}{l}\text{A circle has a radius of 5 cm.}\\ \text{Calculate its area to 1 decimal place.}\end{array} \)

Choose one option:

Remember: square the radius and multiply by π.

This question requires calculating the area of a circle given the radius. Higher-difficulty problems involve understanding units, correct use of π, and squaring the radius. Students should visualise the circle and mark the radius. Practising these calculations helps strengthen understanding of area formulas and prepares students for multi-step problems, such as comparing areas of circles or solving geometry problems involving composite shapes.
