Middle and high schoolers calculate the volume of cylinders. They measure the height, radius and diameter of cylinders. Following given formulas, students calculate the area and volume of the cylinder. They compare cylinders and predict...

Junior scientists work in groups to construct electromagnets. They experiment by varying number of wraps around the nail, the diameter of the nail, and the type of metal the nail is made of to see if any of these factors has an...

Fifth graders investigate the concept of finding the circumference of a circle. They demonstrate why the formula works with a hands on experiment. There is detailed instructions for carrying out the technical portions of the experiment.

Students will define circle and radius. In this radius lesson,  students are given a circumference, they will write an equation and sketch the circle. Students will match graphs of circles to their equations.   

In this squares activity, 10th graders solve and complete 7 various types of problems. First, they divide a product of one with a square of the other. Then, students find the dimensions of a rectangle that will maximize the area. In...

In this integers and measurement worksheet, students solve 24 various types of problems as defined. They reduce all fractions to lowest terms. Then, students draw a diagram and show the measurements to the proper power and pi for the...

In this finding the radius of circles worksheet, students must calculate the radius of 4 circles. Students are given diameter and must write the radius on the line for each circle. 

In this expressions and operations worksheet, learners solve and complete 5 different problems that include identifying expressions and using the order of operations. First, they determine the value of a given expression and its...

Students calculate the area and circumference of a circle. In this geometry lesson, students solve word problems with circles and create formulas to calculate the area. They find the rate and complex area of a circle.

Develop a new measure of the properties of an object. Scholars develop a definition and formula to measure the bumpy-ness of an object. They utilize their formulas to find the property for several spherical objects.

Geometers find the area of four circles given their circumferences. Circumference is presented in the form of "numeral (diameter) x pi"; the answer key shows solutions as  "numeral (radius squared) x pi," so computation is...

Learners explore the concept of volume. They develop formulas for volume of prisms. Then use their formulas to find missing dimensions of various prisms such as height, length, width, radius, and diameter.

Your learners will be tantalized by this inquiry-based, collaborative activity as they discover how to write an equation that represents the height of an ice cream cone. Given the scenario based on the poem, "Eighteen Flavors," and...

Students draw diagrams demonstrating how it is possible to two central angles to be congruent and their minor arcs are not congruent. In groups, they illustrate theorems with their constructed circles, create diameters of circles that...

Third graders work in groups of two to three with measuring tapes, finding the circumference and diameter of teacher-selected circular items. They relate circumference and diameter measurements to find pi.

In this Mars Rover Landing worksheet, students are given an image of Mars near the Bonneville Crater. Students determine the image scale in the diagram and use it to find the diameter of the Bonneville Crater, the width of the Rover's...

In this geometry worksheet, 6th graders identify the area of the four given circles by using the given diameters. There is a space for students to show their work.

In this area of a circle worksheet, 6th graders must calculate the area of 5 circles given either the radius or diameter. Students must write the area on the line provided and a blank space is provided for students to work out the...

For this circles worksheet, students define and sketch 20 terms about circles. Students sketch radii, chords, diameters, secants, concentric circles, etc.

Don't run from the resource—sprint to it. Using an engaging performance task, scholars consider a set of constraints on the creation of a track. Given several possible designs, they determine if the designs meet the constraints. If not,...

Students explore the size of the sun and it's temperature. Using the Internet, students visit given websites to compare the sun's diameter, outer layers, and mass to visual items students can relate to. They also compare the sun's...

Students create an atomic model using a computer program. For this technology lesson, students identify the difference between radius and diameter. They create circular patterns and spheres based on certain specifications.

Students compare and contrast the orbits of Earth and Mars, locate the planet Mars, and diagram its retrograde motion.

Students investigate the area and circumference of a circle. In this geometry lesson, students estimate and measure the radius, diameter and circumference of a circle. This assignment has an online part that is interactive.
