Circular piece is 4 x 11 = 44 cm long, Then Circumference of circle is given by, 44 = pi x D, where D is the diameter D = 44 / pi Take pi = 22 / 7, then D = 44 / (22/7) = (44 x 7) / 22 D = 14 cm.
Original circumference = 2?r New circumference = (150 /100) x 2 ?r = 3?r 2?R = 3?r? R = 3r/2 Original area = ?r2New area = ?R2= ?9r2 / 4 = 9?r2/4Increase in area = (9?r2/4 ) - (?r2)= (5/4) ?r2Req. increase per cent = [{(5/4) ?r2} / {?r2}] x 100 = 125 %
