Let the radius of circles be 𝑟 cm, 𝑟1 cm and 𝑟2 cm respectively. Then their

areas are 𝐴 = 𝜋𝑟 2 cm² , 𝐴1 = 𝜋𝑟12 cm²and 𝐴2 = 𝜋𝑟22 cm² respectively.

It is given that,
Area A of circle = Area 𝐴1 of circle + Area 𝐴2 of circle
𝜋𝑟 2 = 𝜋𝑟12 + 𝜋𝑟22
𝜋𝑟 2 = 𝜋(𝑟12 + 𝑟22 )
𝑟 2 = 𝑟12 + 𝑟22
𝑟 2 = 𝑟12 + 𝑟22
We have, 𝑟1 = 6 cm and 𝑟2 = 8 cm
Substituting the values of 𝑟1 , 𝑟2
𝑟2 = 6 × 6 + 8 × 8
𝑟 2 = 36 + 64
𝑟 2 = 100

It is given that,
Circumference C of circle

2𝜋𝑟 = 2𝜋𝑟1 + 2𝜋𝑟2
2𝜋𝑟 = 2𝜋(𝑟1 + 𝑟2 )
𝑟 = 𝑟1 + 𝑟2
We have, 𝑟1 = 19 cm and 𝑟2 = 9 cm
Substituting the values of 𝑟1 , 𝑟2
𝑟 = 19 + 9
𝑟 = 28 cm
Hence the radius of the circle is 28 cm.

ANSWER:
Radius of the wheel, r = 35 cm
circumference = 2𝜋𝑟 = 2𝜋 × 35 = 220 cm

Distance covered by the wheel in one minute = 220x

semi-circular flower beds all round. Find the cost of levelling the semi-
circular flower beds at 60 paise per square metre (use π = 3.14).

Total Area of plot = 2 × 3925 + 2 × 981.25
= 7850 + 1962.5 m²

Since, the cost of levelling semicircular flower bed per square meter = Rs.

ANSWER:
It is given that, length of each straight portion = 90 m and width of track
= 14 m.
We know that the circumference C of semicircle of radius be r is

𝐶 = 𝜋𝑟
The inside perimeter of running track is the sum of twice the length of
straight portion and circumferences of semicircles. So,
inside perimeter of running track = 400 m

∴ Area of the shaded region = (𝐴𝐵 + 𝐶𝐷) × 𝐵𝐶 − 𝜋𝑟 2

∴ Area of the shaded region = (3.5 + 𝐶𝐷) × 3.5 − 𝜋(3.5)2

Now we find the value of CD.
𝐶𝐷 = 𝐶𝐸 + 𝐷𝐸
∴ 𝐶𝐷 = 3.5 + 2 … (Since, CE is radius of the sector, therefore, CE =
3.5)
∴ 𝐶𝐷 = 5.5

Substituting the values of CD and 𝜋 = in equation (1),

Question 53: In a hospital used water is collected in a cylindrical tank of

a park of hospital whose length is 25 m and breadth is 20 m. If tank is
filled completely then what will be the height of standing water used for
irrigating the park.
ANSWER:
Diameter of cylinder (d) = 2 m
Radius of cylinder (r) = 1 m
Height of cylinder (H) = 5 m
Volume of cylindrical tank, Vc = 𝜋𝑟 2 𝐻 = 𝜋 × (1)2 × 5 = 5𝜋 m
Length of the park (l) = 25 m

Breadth of park (b) = 20 m
height of standing water in the park = h

We have given that a wire is bent in the form of square of side a cm such
that the area of the square is 81 cm². If we bent the same wire in the form
of a semicircle with radius r cm, the perimeter of the wire will not change.
∴ perimeter of the square = perimeter of semi-circle

We have
OA = r
AB = h
Therefore, radius of the outer circle will be 𝑟 + ℎ.
Now we will find the area between the two circles.
Area of the circular path = area of the outer circle – area of the inner
circle
∴ Area of the circular path = 𝜋(𝑟 + ℎ)2 − 𝜋𝑟 2
∴ Area of the circular path = 𝜋(𝑟 2 + 2𝑟ℎ + ℎ2 ) − 𝜋𝑟 2
∴ Area of the circular path = 𝜋(𝑟 2 + 2𝑟ℎ + ℎ2 − 𝑟 2 )
Cancelling 𝑟 2 we get,
Area of the circular path = 𝜋(2𝑟ℎ + ℎ2 )
∴ Area of the circular path = 𝜋(2𝑟 + ℎ)ℎ
Therefore, area of the circle is 𝜋(2𝑟 + ℎ)ℎ.

Since ∆CED is equilateral,

Therefore,

Now, ∠𝐸𝐶𝐷 = 60°
Since AC is diagonal of sq r. ABCD
Therefore,
∠𝐴𝐶𝐷 = 45°
Therefore, we get,
∠𝐸𝐶𝐴 = ∠𝐸𝐶𝐷 − ∠𝐴𝐶𝐷
= 60° − 45°

AREA RELATED TO CIRCLES

Circumference of the circle

Let the radius of a circle be r cm, then diameter of circle is 2r cm and

It is given that the circumference exceeds the diameter of circle by 16.8

44𝑟 = 117.6 + 14𝑟 cm

Hence the horse can graze 2464 m² area.

Now, we will calculate area of circle.

Now we will calculate the ratio of their areas,

Substituting the value of 1,

Hence the ratio of their Areas is 4: 9.

Now, solving (A) and (B)

of the two circles.

Let the radius of circles be 𝑟 cm, 𝑟1 cm and 𝑟2 cm respectively. Then their

areas are 𝐴 = 𝜋𝑟 2 cm² , 𝐴1 = 𝜋𝑟12 cm²and 𝐴2 = 𝜋𝑟22 cm² respectively.

Area of circular playground = 22176 m2

Hence the area of circle inscribed the square is 78.5 cm²

Diameter of circle circumscribed the square = diameter of square

Now, area of square ABCD = 𝐴𝐵2 = 2𝑟 2

Hence, the ratio of area of the circle and square is 𝜋: 2.

Substituting the value of h,

Since car travels 1 km distance in which wheel makes 450 complete

Hence, the radius of inner circle is 14 cm.

Area of region C = − − = 𝜋 ( ) − 𝜋(𝑥 −𝜋( )

Question 25: A path of 4 m width runs round a semi-circular grassy plot

We have given AB = 4m and circumference of semicircle with radius OA

We are asked to find the area between the two semi-circles.

Cost of turfing the plot = 4249.14 × 0.45

with radius 7 cm and 3.5 cm

⇒ 𝑟 2 = 36.75 + 49 = 85.75 cm2

Thus, the outer radius = 3.5 + 14 = 17.5 m

Outer circumference of the race track = 528 m

Total radius of the outer circle = 84 − 14 = 70 m

Question 2: Find the angle subtended at the centre of a circle of radius 5

It is given 𝑙 = 20𝜋 cm and angle 𝜃 = 144°.

We know that the arc length l of a sector of an angle θ in a circle of

Question 7: A sector of a circle of radius 8 cm contains an angle of 135°.

It is given that 𝑟 = 8 cm and 𝜃 = 135°.

It is given that radius 𝑟 = 5 cm and area 𝐴 = 5𝜋 cm².

Arc length, l = 3.5 cm

Let OAB is the given sector. Then,

Let OAB is the given sector. Then,

We know that the arc length l and area A of a sector of circle at an

Let OAB is the given sector.

We know that the area A of a sector of circle at an angle θ of radius r is

So, angle described by the minute hand in 25 minute = 6° × 25 = 150°

It is given that, Area of a sector = 4.4 cm² and angle 𝜃 = 56°.

The minute hand rotates through 6o in one minute.

Here, we have θ = 60° and r = 21 cm

(i) The length of the arc is given by

(ii) Area of the sector formed by the arc is given by

Let the area of the circle be Ar.

From (i) and (ii) we have

We have OA = 4 cm and AB = 4 cm. So,

Let ∠𝐴𝑂𝐵 = 2𝜃. Then,
