GCSE Maths Practice: circle-properties

Question 7 of 10

This question calculates area with decimal rounding and applies knowledge of radius.

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

Choose one option:

Square the radius, multiply by π, round to 1 decimal place.

Calculating area requires careful multiplication and rounding. Higher-difficulty questions often combine multiple steps, such as comparing areas, calculating remaining space in composite shapes, or applying to real-world contexts. Practising ensures students are confident with decimal handling, formula application, and unit consistency.
