Advanced Math practice question

For what positive value of r is the area of a circle with radius r numerically equal to its circumference?

Answer: 2

πr² = 2πr → r² = 2r → r = 2 (since r > 0).

Common wrong answers

If you answered 0
0 satisfies r² = 2r but is not a positive radius.
If you answered 1
1 gives area π and circumference 2π.
If you answered 4
4 gives area 16π and circumference 8π.
