Question:
If the radius of a circle is doubled, its area becomes:
2 times
4 times
8 times
16 times
Step-by-Step Solution
Key Concept: Area $A = \pi r^2$. New area $A' = \pi (2r)^2 = 4 \pi r^2 = 4 A$.
Stepwise Solution:
$A' = \pi (2r)^2 = 4 \pi r^2 = 4A$. [1.0 Mark]
Marking Scheme:
• Evaluating area ratio $= 4$: 1.0 Mark
Correct Answer: 4 times
