a 44 cm long wire is bent to form a square if the same wire is bent to make a circular ring which shape would have more area and by how much
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Since wire is bent to a square,
Perimeter of square = 44cm
= 4 × side = 44cm
= side= 44/4
= side = 11cm
Area of square = side²
= (11cm)²
=121cm²
Now, wire is bent to a circular ring
i.e., Circumference = 44cm
=2×22/7 × radius = 44cm
=radius= 7 cm
Area of circle = pi × radius²
=22/7 × 7²
= 22× 7
= 154cm²
Therefore , circle has more area by
154cm² - 121cm²
=33cm²
Given:
perimeter of a square = 44cm
side = 44÷4(side × 4 = perimeter then perimeter ÷ 4 = side)
Area of ths square:
Radius of circle =
perimeter of square = perimeter/circumference of circle
so
44 = 2πr
Area of the circle
Circle has the higher area than square
154>121
so
154 - 121
33cm
the area of the circle is bigger than square by 33cm
