The wire bent in the form of square encloses an area of 121 cm2. What is the enclosed area when same wire is bent in the form of circle?1. 154 cm22. 150 cm23. 44 cm24. 77 cm2

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : 154 cm2

Given:

Area of wire bent in the form of square = 121 cm

Concepts used:

Area of square = (Side)2

The perimeter of wire bent in the form of square = Perimeter of wire bent in the form of the circle

The perimeter of square = 4 × side of the square

Perimeter/Circumference of circle = 2πr

Area of circle = πr2

Where r → Radius

Calculation:

Area of square = (Side)

⇒ 121 cm= (Side)2

⇒ Side = √121 cm

⇒ Side of square = 11 cm

The perimeter of wire bent in the form of square = 4 × side of the square

⇒ 4 × 11 cm

⇒ 44 cm

Let the radius of the circle be r cm.

Perimeter of wire bent in the form of square = Perimeter of wire bent in the form of circle

44 cm = 2πr

⇒ 44 cm = 2 × (22/7) × r

⇒ (44 × 7)/44 cm = r

⇒ r = 7 cm

Area of circle = πr

⇒ 22/7 × (7)2 cm2 

⇒ (22/7) × 49 cm

⇒ 154 cm

∴ The wire encloses an area of 154 cm2 when bent in the form of circle.
