A set of activities used for a top set year 9 KS4 group. Each activity shows a practical application or a proof of one of the circle theorems. Works well as a consolidation exercise.
Response to comment from Brunty_genius:
The Flintstone problem can be solved by using a right-angle (most of my groups have used the edge of their exercise book) and placing it against the circumference. Mark where the book cuts through the circumference, then join the dots. This gives you the diameter, do it again and where the diameters cross is the centre ;)

Something went wrong, please try again later.
A very nice
On Thales' problem 'diameter is half the radius' needs editing. Otherwise, great resource, thanks
Luke: Ooops! What's happened to the size of the earth? <br /> Jim: Did someone let the air out?<br /> Luke: Somehow 6,371 has morphed into 6.37 !<br /> Jim: And basic circle properties have morphed into circle theorems...
With more resources like this, I might have completed more work whilst at STM with you. Hope you are enjoying your return. Alex
This is great but the flinstones wheel is doing my nut in!! Is there a solution?
