      Question

      Perimeter of a square and circumference of a circle are

      in the ratio 15:11, respectively. If area of the square is 225 cm2, then find the radius of the circle. (Take ฯ€ = 22/7)
      A 14 cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 15 cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 8 cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 7 cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the perimeter of the square and circumference of the circle be โ€˜15xโ€™ cm and โ€˜11xโ€™ cm, respectively. Area of square = a2 (Where โ€˜aโ€™ is the side of the square) ATQ; 225 = a2 Or, a = 15 cm So, perimeter of the square = 15 ร— 4 = 60 cm So, circumference of circle = 60 ร— (11x/15x) = 44 cm Circumference of circle = 2ฯ€r (Where โ€˜rโ€™ is the radius) So, 44 = 2 ร— (22/7) ร— r Or, r = 7 cm Therefore, radius of the circle is 7 cm.
