Circle
and Its
Parts
 1. identify the parts of a
circle: center,
diameter, and radius;

OBJECTIVES: how circles are used
in their daily lives;
The learners should be and
able to: 3. illustrate a circle and
the terms related to
it: center, diameter,
and radius (M7GE –
IIIg – 1).
 ACTIVITY: Capture Me!

Procedure:
Find the objects listed below and capture them using your phones
and sent them in the official group chat of the class in Mathematics 7.
 
Objects to capture:
 Button
 Coins
 Circular bracelets
 Cover of Circular food container or any container
 Water bottle cap
 ACTIVITY: Draw, Cut and Fold!
Procedure:
1. Draw a point somewhere in the
middle of a sheet of paper.
2. Now, using a ruler, mark 20 other
points that are 5 cm from the first point.
3. Compare your work with that of your
seatmates.
4. Cut the circle.
5. Fold the circle directly in half and
crease it well.
6. Open the circle.
7. Using your pencil, trace one of the
lines from the center to the edge of the
circle.
Guide Questions:
1. What shape do you recognize?
2. What is a circle?
3. after cutting the circle, what do you
see on the middle of the circle?
4. What do you call the crease you
made after folding the circle?
5. What do you call the line you traced?
6. Why do all radii (plural of radius) of a
circle have the same length?
7. How long is the diameter of a circle
compared to its radius?
8. Sight any experiences on how circles
are used in our daily lives.
Guide Questions:

1. What shape do you recognize?

Guide Questions:

2. What is a circle?
 Circle

A circle is the set of all points that are the

same distance from a fixed point.

Guide Questions:

3. After cutting the circle,

what do you see on the
middle of the circle?
center
This fixed point is
called the center or
central point of the
circle.
A circle can be named
using the point of the
center.

4. What do you call the

crease you made after
folding the circle?
 diameter
It is a line segment that
passes through the center
of the circle and has its
A C endpoints on the circle.

B A diameter can be named

by its endpoints. In this
figure, the diameter is
segment BC or

Guide Questions:

5. What do you call the

line you traced?
 radius
It is a line segment from the
center of the circle to a
point on the circle. The
A plural of radius is radii.

B A radius can be named by

the central point and its
endpoint. In this figure, the
diameter is segment AB or

6. Why do all radii (plural

of radius) of a circle have
the same length?
Guide Questions:

7. How long is the

diameter of a circle
compared to its radius?
 Try This!!! Instruction: From the illustration,
name or identify the following:
a. name of the circle:
M _______________________
b. radii:
O _______________________
P Q _______________________
_______________________
_______________________
N
c. diameters:

Let’s Wrap up: Fill in the blanks.
I have learned today that a 1._______________ is
the set of all points that are the same distance from a
fixed point. This fixed point is called the
2._______________ of the circle. A segment drawn
from any point on the circle to the center is called a
3._______________. The 4._______________ of a
circle is a line segment that passes through the
center of the circle and has its endpoints on the
circle.
