the diameters of two circles in the ratio 3 ratio 4 and the sum of the areas of the circle is equal to the area of circle whose diameter measured 30 cm find the diameter of the given circles
Answers
Answer:
Given, the diameter of two circles are 3 : 4
Let the diameter of the first circle = 3x
So, radius of the first circle = 3x/2
and diameter of the second circle = 4x
So, radius of the second circle = 4x/2 = 2x
Now, according to question,
π(3x/2)2 + π(2x)2 = π(30/2)2
=> (3x/2)2 + (2x)2 = (15)2
=> 9x2 /4 + 4x2 = 225
=> (9x2 + 16x2 )/4 = 225
=> 25x2 /4 = 225
=> x2 /4 = 225/25
=> x2 /4 = 9
=> x2 = 9*4
=> x2 = 36
=> x = √36
=> x = ±6
=> x = 6 {since x ≠ -6}
So, the the diameter of the first circle = 3x = 3*6 = 18 cm
and the diameter of the second circle = 4x = 4*6 = 24 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the ratio be x
diameter of first circle = 3x , radius of first circle = 3x/2
diameter of second circle = 4x , radius of second circle = 2x
now it is given ,
Area of 1st circle + Area of 2nd circle = area of circle with radius 15cm
pi (3x/2)^2 + pi (2x)^2 = pi (15)^2
9x^2/4 + 4x^2 = 225
25x^2 = 900
x = 6
Diameter of first circle = 3 × 6 = 18 cm
diameter of second circle = 4 × 6 = 24 cm
