A wire bent in the form of a square enclose an area of 484 sq cm. If the same wire is bent in the form of a circle, find the area of the circle. |

Answer» Given that Area of the square formed by bending a copper wire = 484cm² We know that side of the square = s² s² = 484 s = 22cm. We know that perimeter of the square = 4 * s = 4 * 22 = 88cm. Therefore the length of the wire = 88cm. Now, Given that the same wire is bent into a form of circle. Circumference of circle = Length of wire 2πr = 88 2 * 22/7 * r = 88 44/7 * r = 88 44 * r = 88 * 7 44 * r = 616 r = 616/44 r = 14. We know that Area of circle = pir² = 22/7 * (14)² = 22 * 14 * 2 = 616cm² Therefore the area enclosed by the circle = 616cm² |
