Find the circumference and area of a circle of radius 15 cm. (Take π = 3.14)
Answers
Solution!!
The radius of the circle is given in the question. We just need to apply two formulae and we will get the area and circumference of the circle.
Circumference = 2πr
Area = πr²
If you haven't memorized these formulae, please do it ASAP. It will be piece of cake to solve these kind of questions if you know the formulae.
Circumference = 2πr
Circumference = 2 × 3.14 × 15 cm
Circumference = 30 cm × 3.14
Circumference = 94.2 cm
Area = πr²
Area = 3.14 × (15 cm)²
Area = 3.14 × 225 cm²
Area = 706.5 cm²
FYI the area will always be in square units.
CORRECT QUESTIONS : -
Find the circumference and area of a circle of radius 15 cm. (Take π = 3.14)
SOLUTION :-
➠ Here, radius r = 15 cm
➠ Circumference of a circle = (2πr) units
➠ Where, π = 3.14 [given]
= 2 × 3.14 × 15 = 94.2 cm
