Answer 1

Question :

A wire circular in the shape is of radius 14cm, if it is bent in the form of a square, find the side of square

Answer :

$\sf\pink{given}$

• Radius is 14 cm

• same wire is used to make a square

• circumference of radius = perimeter of square

$\sf\pink{to\:find}$

• side of the square = ?

Explanation :

Circumference of circle = 2πr

$\longrightarrow\bf{ 2\times \dfrac{22}{7}\times 14 }$

$\longrightarrow\bf{ 2\times 22\times 2}$

$\longrightarrow\bf{ 44\times 2}$

$\longrightarrow\bf{ 88}$

• Therefore circumference is 88 cm

• therefore perimeter is 88 cm

Perimeter of square = 4 × side

$\longrightarrow\bf{ 88 = 4\times side}$

$\longrightarrow\bf{side = \dfrac{88}{4}}$

$\longrightarrow\bf{side = 22}$

• Therefore side is 22 cm
