Question

    A wire is bent to form a square whose sides are of 99

    cm. If the same wire is bent to form a circle, then find the area (in cm2) of the circle formed.
    A 12474 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 12434 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 12444 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 12074 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Total length of the wire = 4 × length of the square = 4 × 99 = 396 cm So, circumference of the circle = 396 cm Radius of the circle = {396/(2π)} = {396 × 7/44)} = 63 cm Area of the circle formed = (22/7) × 63 × 63 = 12474 cm2
