The diameter of two circles are in the ratio of 4 : 3 and sum of the their areas is equal to the area of the circle, whose radius is 5cm .Find the diameter of the two circles.
Answers
Answer:Define x:
Diameter = 4 : 3
Let x be the constant ratio
Diameter = 4x : 3x
Find the radius in term of x:
Radius = Diameter ÷ 2
Radius = (4x ÷ 2) : (3x ÷ 2)
Radius = 2x : 1.5x
Find the first area:
Area = πr²
Area = π(2x)²
Area = 4πx²
Find the second area:
Area = πr²
Area = π(1.5x)²
Area = 2.25πx²
Find the area of the circle with radius = 5 cm:
Area = πr²
Area = π(5)²
Area = 25π
Solve x:
4πx² + 2.25πx² = 25π
6.25πx² = 25π
x² = 4
x = 2
Find the diameter:
First circle's diameter = 4x = 4(2) = 8 cm
Second circle's diameter = 3x = 3(2) = 6 cm
Answer: The diameters are 8 cm and 6 cm
