Circle Practice Problems

15 circle problems with full worked solutions, graded from warm-up to stretch — plus an unlimited supply you can generate yourself. Every answer is computed by the same verified function that powers the circle explorer, so the solutions cannot disagree with the formulas. Free, no account, nothing to install.

Formulas you need

  • Area: A=πr2A = \pi r^2
  • Circumference: C=2πrC = 2\pi r
  • Diameter: d=2rd = 2r

where r = radius, d = diameter (d = 2r), A = area, C = circumference, π ≈ 3.14159
