Notes on The Circle
A circle is a simple closed curve and it is not a polygon. Below is the image of a circle.
Parts of a Circle
Centre: The center point of the entire circle. Point C is the centre of the circle.
Radius: The line segment that connects the centre of circle to any point on the circle. OC is the radius of the circle.
Diameter: The line segment that connects two points on the circle and passes through the centre of the circle. It is double the value of the radius. AB is the diameter of the circle.
Chord: The line segment that connects two points on the circle but do not pass through the centre of the circle. DE is the chord of the circle.
Circumference: It is the distance around the circle.
Arc: An arc is the part of circumference. DFE is the arc of the circle.
Sector: Sector is an interior region bounded by pair of radii and arc on one side. OBC is a sector of the circle where OB and OC are radius and BC is an arc.
Segment: Segment is an interior region bounded by a chord and an arc.
Also note that the Diameter is twice the Radius:
Diameter = 2 × Radius
And so this is also true:
Circumference = 2 × π × Radius
Area of Circle
The area of a circle is π times the radius squared, which is written:
A = π r2
Where
- A is the Area
- r is the radius

Revision Exercise The Circle ICSE Class-6th Concise Mathematics Selina Solutions
Question- 1.
The centre of a circle is at point O and its radius is 8 cm. State the position of a point P (point P may lie inside the circle, on the circumference of the circle, or outside the circle), when :
(a) OP = 10.6 cm
(b) OP = 6.8 cm
(c) OP = 8 cm
Answer-1
Draw circle each of radius 8 cm. With centre O
In figure
(a) draw OP = 10.6 cm
We see that point P lies outside the circle as OP > radius of the circle
(b) OP = 6.8 cm. We see that P lies inside the circle as OP < radius of the circle.
(c) OP = 8 cm. We see that P lies on the circle as OP = radius of the circle.
Question -2.
The diameter of a circle is 12.6 cm. State, the length of its radius.
Answer-2
Diameter of the circle = 12.6 cm
∴Radius = 1⁄2 diameter = 1⁄2 x 12.6 cm
= 6.3 cm
Question- 3.
Can the length of a chord of a circle be greater than its diameter ? Explain.
Answer-3
No, the length of chord cannot be greater than the diameter of the cirlce as the diameter of a circle is the greatest chord of that circle
