MATHEMATICS 5
LEARNING ACTIVITY SHEET

Circles are around us. The shape of a P10-coin, pizza and a hula hoop are some examples.
A circle is the set of all points in a plane with same distance from a certain point. This point is
called the center of the circle.
What are the basic terms related to a circle. Can you identify them?

Let’s try this!

Segment passes at the center of the circle. How is it called?


It is the diameter of the circle.
How many radii are there? There are 2 radii,
Line segment FG ´ is called chord it is a line segment joining two
points on a circle.

´ ? It is an arc. It is a part or portion of


What part of a circle is EA
the circumference of the circle.
Drawing Circles with Different Radii Using a
Compass

Here are the steps in drawing circles using a compass.

1. Insert a sharp pencil into the holder of the compass


2. Open the compass to the radius desired for your circle. The radius is the distance
from the center point of the circle to the outer edge.
3. Place the compass point on a piece of paper where you would like the center point of
the circle to be.
4. Place the point of the pencil on the paper.
5. Rotate the compass to mark a circle on the paper with the pencil. Draw without
lifting the point of the compass off the paper.

Directions: Choose the correct answer from the words inside the box. Write your
answers on a sheet of paper.
