Introduction to area of circle worksheet:
A circle is formed by the set of points which are at an equal distance from a center point.
Let us know about the two important terms of the circle.
Circumference :
Total length of the curved figure is called as circumference.
Distance covered by a wheel in one revolution is the circumference.
Area:
Area of the circle is the region covered by the circumference on the plane surface.
Diameter:
It is the line segment whose end points are on the circumference and passes through the origin.
Radius:
Radius is the distance between the center point and a point on the circumference of the circle.
Greek letter p:
The ratio between the value of circumference to the diameter is always a constant .
It is denoted by the Greek letter p.
p = 3.14 or 22/7
Area of Circle Worksheet-formulas
Let C denotes circumference, A denotes the area, r denotes the radius, d denotes the diameter.
r = d/2
C = pd units
C = 2pr units
A = pr^2 square units

Area of Circle Worksheet-finding Area of Circle:
We could find the area of the circle using a graph paper by drawing the circle knowing the radius of the circle and then count the number of squares enclosed by the circumference of the circle.
We can estimate the area by counting the number of squares enclosed in the first quadrant or in any of the quadrant and multiply it with 4.
Do you think that it is an easy method?
No
It is very tedious to calculate the number of squares enclosed exactly.
Area of Semi Circle and Quadrant:
Area of semi circle = area of the circle/2
= pr^2 /2
Area of quadrant = area of the circle/4
= pr^2/4
Area of Circle Worksheet-problems on Area of Circles:
A circular pool is of the radius 10m. Find the area of the pool.
Solution:
Radius,r = 10 m
Area of the pool = pr^2 square units
= 3.14 x 10 x 10
= 314 m^2
The area of the circle is 16p cm^2. What is its circumference?
Solution:
Area of the circle = pr^2 = 16p
So, r^2 = 16
r = `sqrt(16)`
r = 4 cm.
Circumference of the circle = 2pr
= 2 x 3.14 x 4
= 25.1 cm
Find the area of circle whose circumference measures 66 cm.
Solution:
Circumference of the circle = 2pr = 66
2 x 3.14 x r = 66
r = $\frac{66}{6.28}$
r = 10.5 cm
Area of the circle = pr^2 square units
= 3.14 x 10.5 x 10.5
= 346.185 cm^2
Find the area and radius of the circle, given that the area of the semicircle is 77 cm.
Solution:
Area of the semi circle = 77 cm^2
So, area of circle = 2 x 77
= 154 cm^2
Area of the circle = pr^2 square units
Area of the circle = pr^2 = 154
So, r^2 = 49
r = `sqrt(49)`
r = 7 cm.
