About this worksheet

What students practice

  • Students calculate circle areas and circumferences from radii, diameters, and boundary lengths.
  • Students use circle measurements to solve tournament design and material problems.
  • Students explain informally why a circle's area equals half its circumference times its radius.

How to use

Use after introducing circle formulas. Allow a calculator, require students to show their setup on separate paper, and discuss the final explanation.

Curriculum

Common Core standard covered

7.G.B.4

Chess Tournament: Circle Specifications

Use circle measurements to plan rating badges, awards, and tournament displays.

Rating Badge Specifications

Use π = 3.14 for numerical calculations. Do not round unless a question asks you to. All badges are circles; rating labels identify divisions, not measurements.

1.
The chess club prints each player's rating inside a circular badge. A badge has diameter d. Which pair of formulas gives its circumference C and area A?
  • A. C = πd and A = πd²
  • B. C = 2πd and A = πd²
  • C. C = πd and A = π(d/2)²
  • D. C = π(d/2) and A = π(d/2)²
2.
A circular player badge has radius 3.5 cm. A thin border follows its outer edge.

How long is the border?   cm
