Question

Three identical circles fit inside a rectangle. The length of the rectangle is 90cm. Find the distance between the two centers, A and B.

Answer 1

Answer:

60m

Step-by-step explanation:

The line on which the three circles were drawn = 90cm

Therefore, each circle divides the line into three equal parts,

i.e 90/3 = 30

That means each circle has a diameter of 30cm and radius of 30/2 = 15cm

From the center of circle A, the radius on the line towards the diameter of the second circle to the radius of the third circle with center B.

So, add the radius of circle '1' + the diameter of circle '2' + the radius of circle '3'.

{Remeber the radius is 15cm and diameter is 30cm for all the circles}

= 15 + 30 + 15

= 60cm
