Area Problems
The length and breadth of a playground are 36 m and 21 m respectively. Flagstaffs are required to be fixed on all along the boundary at a distance of 3 m apart. The number of flagstaffs will be?
Diameter of the circle = 13 + 5 = 18 cm? Radius = Diameter/2 =18/2 = 9 cm Area of the circle = ?r2 = (22/7) x 92 = (22 x 81)/9 = 1782/7 = 254.57 sq cm= 255 sq cm
Let original radius be r.Then, according to the questions,? (r + 1)2 - ?r2 = 22? ? x [(r + 1)2 - r2] = 22? (22/7) x (r + 1 + r ) x (r + 1 - r) = 22? 2r + 1 = 7 ? 2r = 6 ? r = 6/2 = 3 cm
