Grade: 7
14 ) Know the formulas for the area and circumference of a circle, and use them to solve problems; give an informal derivation of the relationship between the circumference and area of a circle. [7-G4]


NAEP Framework
NAEP Statement::
8A4e: Use and evaluate common formulas (e.g., relationship between a circle's circumference and diameter [C = pi d], distance and time under constant speed).

NAEP Statement::
8G2d: Predict results of combining, subdividing, and changing shapes of plane figures and solids (e.g., paper folding, tiling, cutting up and rearranging pieces).

NAEP Statement::
8M1f: Solve mathematical or real-world problems involving perimeter or area of plane figures such as triangles, rectangles, circles, or composite figures.
