there are 2 concentric circles,one big and one small . A square ABCD is inscribed inside the big circle while the same square circumscribes the same circle. the square toches the same circle at points P,Q R and S . Determine the ratio of circumference of big circle to the polygon PQRS
please solve fast please please please
Answers
Ratio of circumference of big circle to polygon PQRS = π : 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Please find the attached diagram to illustrate the question.
We find that the side of square ABCD = 2a
The line from the centre O bisects the chords AB, BC, CD and DA.
So AP = PB = a. The same applies to the other 3 sides of the square.
Therefore, we find that PQ = QR = RS = SP.
This implies that PQRS is also a square.
Radius of big circle = diagonal of the square APOS = a√2
Circumference of big circle = 2πr = 2π * a√2 -----------------(1)
Radius of small circle = side of the square APOS = a
PSO is a right-angled triangle. So PS = root of (OS +OP) = a√2
We conclude that PQRS is also a square.
Circumference of square with side a√2 = 4*a√2 -----------------(2)
Ratio of circumference of big circle to the polygon PQRS
= 2π * a√2 : 4a√2
= π : 2
