What is the circumference of a circle?

  1. The circumference of a circle is the distance around the circle.

  2. The circumference of a circle is pi times the diameter.

  3. The circumference of a circle is two times the radius.

  4. The circumference of a circle is the length of the longest chord.

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

The circumference of a circle is the distance around the circle, which is equal to pi times the diameter.

What is the area of a circle?

  1. The area of a circle is pi times the radius squared.

  2. The area of a circle is pi times the diameter squared.

  3. The area of a circle is half the circumference times the radius.

  4. The area of a circle is the length of the longest chord squared.

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The area of a circle is equal to pi times the radius squared.

What is the equation of a circle with center (h, k) and radius r?

  1. $$(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2$$

  2. $$(x + h)^2 + (y + k)^2 = r^2$$

  3. $$(x - h)^2 - (y - k)^2 = r^2$$

  4. $$(x + h)^2 - (y + k)^2 = r^2$$

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The equation of a circle with center (h, k) and radius r is given by $$(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2$$. This equation represents the set of all points in the plane that are equidistant from the point (h, k).

What is the relationship between the radius and diameter of a circle?

  1. The diameter is twice the radius.

  2. The radius is twice the diameter.

  3. The diameter is three times the radius.

  4. The radius is three times the diameter.

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The diameter of a circle is twice the radius. This is because the diameter is the distance across the circle through the center, and the radius is the distance from the center to any point on the circle.

What is the relationship between the circumference and radius of a circle?

  1. The circumference is pi times the radius.

  2. The circumference is two times the radius.

  3. The circumference is three times the radius.

  4. The circumference is four times the radius.

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The circumference of a circle is pi times the radius. This is because the circumference is the distance around the circle, and the radius is the distance from the center to any point on the circle.

What is the relationship between the area and radius of a circle?

  1. The area is pi times the radius squared.

  2. The area is two times the radius squared.

  3. The area is three times the radius squared.

  4. The area is four times the radius squared.

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The area of a circle is pi times the radius squared. This is because the area of a circle is the amount of space inside the circle, and the radius is the distance from the center to any point on the circle.

What is the relationship between the circumference and diameter of a circle?

  2. The circumference is two times the diameter.

  3. The circumference is three times the diameter.

  4. The circumference is four times the diameter.

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The circumference of a circle is pi times the diameter. This is because the circumference is the distance around the circle, and the diameter is the distance across the circle through the center.

  3. The area is three times the diameter squared.

  4. The area is four times the diameter squared.

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The area of a circle is pi times the diameter squared. This is because the area of a circle is the amount of space inside the circle, and the diameter is the distance across the circle through the center.

What is the equation of a circle with center at the origin and radius r?

  1. $$x^2 + y^2 = r^2$$

  2. $$(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2$$

  3. $$(x + h)^2 + (y + k)^2 = r^2$$

  4. $$(x - h)^2 - (y - k)^2 = r^2$$

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The equation of a circle with center at the origin and radius r is given by $$x^2 + y^2 = r^2$$. This equation represents the set of all points in the plane that are equidistant from the origin.

What is the equation of a circle that passes through the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

  1. $$(x - x1)(x - x2) + (y - y1)(y - y2) = 0$$

  2. $$(x - x1)^2 + (y - y1)^2 = (x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2$$

  3. $$(x - x1)^2 - (y - y1)^2 = (x2 - x1)^2 - (y2 - y1)^2$$

  4. $$(x + x1)^2 + (y + y1)^2 = (x2 + x1)^2 + (y2 + y1)^2$$

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

The equation of a circle that passes through the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by $$(x - x1)^2 + (y - y1)^2 = (x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2$$. This equation represents the set of all points in the plane that are equidistant from the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2).

What is the equation of a circle that is tangent to the x-axis at the point (a, 0)?

  1. $$(x - a)^2 + y^2 = a^2$$

  2. $$(x + a)^2 + y^2 = a^2$$

  3. $$(x - a)^2 - y^2 = a^2$$

  4. $$(x + a)^2 - y^2 = a^2$$

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The equation of a circle that is tangent to the x-axis at the point (a, 0) is given by $$(x - a)^2 + y^2 = a^2$$. This equation represents the set of all points in the plane that are equidistant from the point (a, 0).

What is the equation of a circle that is tangent to the y-axis at the point (0, b)?

  1. $$x^2 + (y - b)^2 = b^2$$

  2. $$x^2 + (y + b)^2 = b^2$$

  3. $$x^2 - (y - b)^2 = b^2$$

  4. $$x^2 - (y + b)^2 = b^2$$

Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The equation of a circle that is tangent to the y-axis at the point (0, b) is given by $$x^2 + (y - b)^2 = b^2$$. This equation represents the set of all points in the plane that are equidistant from the point (0, b).
