The ratio of the circumference of two circles is 5 : 8. What is the ratio of their corresponding areas?1. 5 : 82. 25 : 643. 64 : 254. 8 : 5

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : 25 : 64

Given:

The ratio of the circumference of two circles = 5 ∶ 8

Formula used:

Circumference of a circle = 2 π R

Area of a circle = π R2

Calculations:

Let the radius of two circles be r1 and r2

The ratio of the circumference of two circles = (2 × π × r1) ∶ (2 × π × r2)

⇒ r1 ∶ r2 = 5 ∶ 8

The radius of two circles are 5x and 8x

Ratio of corresponding areas = (π × r12) ∶ (π × r22)

⇒ r12 ∶ r22 = (5x)2 ∶ (8x)2

⇒ 25x2 ∶ 64x2

⇒ 25 ∶ 64

∴ The ratio of their corresponding areas is 25 ∶ 64
