Apply Circle Area and Circumference Formulas - 7th Grade Math

1. Identify the correct expression for area if a circle has radius $r=5$.

   $\pi=\frac{C}{d}$. Pi is the ratio of circumference to diameter.

4. Identify the correct relationship between area $A$ and radius $r$ when radius doubles.

   If $r$ doubles, then $A$ becomes $4$ times as large. Area varies with the square of the radius.

5. Identify the incorrect step: $C=2\pi r$, $r=4$, so $C=2\pi(4)=8\pi^2$. What is the correct $C$?
