A circular path has to be constructed around a circular lawn. if the outer and inner circumferences of the path are 88 cm and 44 cm respectively, find the width and area of the path.
Answers
Width of the path is 7 cm, and Area of the circular path is 462 cm²
Let the radius of inner circle be r
Given, Circumference of inner circle = 44 cm.
∴ C = 44 cm
⇒ C = 44
⇒ 2πr = 44
⇒ πr = 22
⇒r = 7 cm.
Now, Let the radius of outer circle be R
Given, Circumference of inner circle = 88 cm.
∴ C = 88 cm
⇒ C = 88
⇒ 2πR = 88
⇒ πR= 44
⇒ R= 14 cm.
Width of the path = R - r = 14 - 7 = 7cm.
Area of inner circle
⇒a = πr²
⇒a = π(7)²
⇒a = 49π
Area of Outer circle
⇒A = πR²
⇒A = π(14)²
⇒A = 196 π
Area of the Path
= A - a
= (196 - 49) π
= 147 π
= 147 ( 22) / 7
= 21 ( 22)
= 462 cm²
Therefore, Area of the path is 462 cm².
