A circular flower bed is surrounded by a path is 4m wide. The diameter of the flower bed is 66m. What is the area of this path?(Take pie=3.14)
Answers
Answer:
879.2 sq m
Step-by-step explanation:
Have solved by taking both values of π, check the attached solution
Given:-
Width of the path = 4 m
Diameter of the flower bed = 66 m
To find:-
The area of the path.
Solution:-
Diameter of the flower bed is 66 m.
So, Radius of the flower bed =diameter/2
= (66/2)m
= 33m.
Now, Area of flower bed = π r²
⟹ Area = 3.14 × (33)²
⟹Area = 3.14 × 1089.
⟹Area = 3419.49 m²
Now, Diameter of large circle
= Width of path + diameter of flower bed.
= ( 66 + 4)m
= 70m
So, Radius of large circle
= (diameter/ 2)
= (70/2)m
= 35 m.
Now, Area of large circle = π r²
➟Area = 3.14 × (35)²
➟Area = 3.14 × 1225.
➟Area = 3846.5
So, now Area of path
= Area of large circle - Area of flower bed
= 3846.5 - 3419.49
= 427.01 m² (ans)
Therefore, the area of the path is 427.01 m².
