Find the radius of a circle whose circumference is equal to the sum of the circumferences of two radii $15\ cm$ and $18\ cm$.
Given: A circle whose circumference is equal to the sum of the circumferences of two radii $15\ cm$ and $18\ cm$.
To do: To find the radius of the circle.
Solution:
The radii of two circles are $r_1=15\ cm$ & $r_2=18\ cm$.
The radius $r$ of the circle whose circumference $C=C_1+C_2$.
We have $C_1=2\pi r_1$ & $C_2=2\pi r_2$.
$\therefore$ The resulting circumference $C=2\pi r=C_1+C_2=2\pi (r_1+r_2)$
$=2\pi ( 15+18)\ cm=66\pi \ cm$.
$\therefore$ We have, $2\pi r=66\pi$
$\Rightarrow r=\frac{66}{2}\ cm=33\ cm$.
Thus, the radius of the circle is $33\ cm$.
