Mrs. Groovy Groves guides students through various geometry problems, including calculating the area of a circle using a rectangle analogy, estimating circle dimensions from circumference, finding the area of a circular table, comparing distances on carousel rings, and determining coin types based on rotations and distance traveled. The video emphasizes understanding geometric formulas and applying them to solve practical problems.

How does rearranging the wedges of a circle into a rectangle help explain the formula for the area of a circle?

• It shows that the area of a circle is half its circumference.

• It demonstrates that the area of a circle is equal to its circumference.

• It proves that the area of a circle is twice its radius.

• It illustrates that the area of a circle is equivalent to the area of a rectangle with base πr and height r.

What is the formula used to calculate the circumference of a circle?

• C = πr²

• C = πd

• C = 2r

• C = 2πr

Given a circle with a circumference of 76 cm, what is the approximate diameter?

• 76 cm

• 12 cm

• 24 cm

• 38 cm

What is the relationship between the diameter and the radius of a circle?

• The diameter is twice the radius.

• The diameter is half the radius.

• The diameter is equal to the radius.

• The diameter is three times the radius.

If a circular table has a diameter of 37 inches, what is its approximate area?

• 1075 square inches

• 452 square inches

• 342 square inches

• 144 square inches

On a carousel, if Kieran rides on a ring with a radius of 9 feet, and Mai rides on a ring 8 feet farther out, what is the radius of Mai's ring?

• 25 feet

• 9 feet

• 17 feet

• 8 feet

How much farther does Mai travel than Kieran in one rotation of the carousel?

• 50.3 feet

• 56.5 feet

• 106.8 feet

• 34 feet

• 37.5 cm

• 28.5 cm

If a dime rolls 41.8 centimeters, how many rotations did it make?

• 8 rotations

• 6 rotations

• 7 rotations

• 5 rotations
