Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : 154 cm2 Given: Area of wire bent in the form of square = 121 cm2 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)2 ⇒ 121 cm2 = (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 = πr2 ⇒ 22/7 × (7)2 cm2 ⇒ (22/7) × 49 cm2 ⇒ 154 cm2 ∴ The wire encloses an area of 154 cm2 when bent in the form of circle. |
