YEAR 8 · CIRCLES, AREA AND VOLUME

Topic review.

Connect the key ideas, then choose a practice paper.

01 / QUICK RECAP

Connect the ideas.

  • Distinguish boundary length, covering area and volume before choosing a formula.
  • For a circle, radius is half the diameter; circumference and area use different formulas.
  • Split a composite region into non-overlapping pieces or subtract a missing region.
  • Square the length conversion factor when converting area units.
  • A prism repeats its cross-section: volume is cross-sectional area times perpendicular length.
  • Use internal dimensions for capacity, convert units consistently and check the practical interpretation.
02 / TOPIC TEST

Put it together.

Choose a paper and show your working.

  1. Circles, area and volume — topic test
