Find the radius of a circle whose circumference is
(a) $ 22 \mathrm{~cm} $
(b) $ 17.6 \mathrm{~cm} $
(c) $ 30.8 \mathrm{~cm} $
Take $ \pi=\frac{22}{7} $ in each case.
Given:
The circumference of a circle is:
(a) \( 22 \mathrm{~cm} \)
(b) \( 17.6 \mathrm{~cm} \)
(c) \( 30.8 \mathrm{~cm} \)
To do:
We have to find the radii of the circles.
Solution:
(a) Let the radius of the circle be $r$.
This implies,
$2 \pi r=22\ cm$
$2\times\frac{22}{7}\times r=22$
$r=\frac{7\times22}{44}$
$r=\frac{7}{2}\ cm$
The radius of the circle is $3.5\ cm$.
(b) Let the radius of the circle be $r$.
This implies,
$2 \pi r=17.6\ cm$
$2\times\frac{22}{7}\times r=17.6$
$r=\frac{7\times17.6}{44}$
$r=7\times0.4\ cm$
$r=2.8\ cm$
The radius of the circle is $2.8\ cm$.
(c) Let the radius of the circle be $r$.
This implies,
$2 \pi r=30.8\ cm$
$2\times\frac{22}{7}\times r=30.8$
$r=\frac{7\times30.8}{44}$
$r=7\times0.7\ cm$
$r=4.9\ cm$
The radius of the circle is $4.9\ cm$.
