Question 1.
The radii of two circles are 19 cm and 9 cm respectively. Find the radius of the circle which has a circumference equal to the sum of the circumferences of the two circles.
Solution:
Let radii of two circles be r1 and r2, and R be the radius of third circle whose circumference is equal to the sum of circumference of two circle
r1 = 19 cm
r2 = 9 cm
C1 + C2 = C
2Ï€r2 + 2Ï€r2 = 2Ï€R
⇒ 2Ï€(r1 + r2) = 2Ï€R
⇒ r1 + r1 = R
⇒ 19 + 9 = R
⇒ R = 28 cm
Question 2.
The radii of two circles are 8 cm and 6 cm respectively. Find the radius of the circle having an area equal to the sum of the areas of the two circles.
Solution:
Let r1 and r2 be the area of two circles and radius of the third circle be R.
r1 = 8 cm, r2 = 6 cm
A1 + A2 = A
⇒ Ï€r21 + Ï€r22 = Ï€R2
⇒ Ï€(r21 + r22) = Ï€R2
⇒ r21 + r22 = R2
⇒ 82 + 62 = R2
⇒ R2 = 64 + 36 = 100
⇒ R = 10 cm
Question 3.

Question 5.
Tick the correct answer in the following and justify your choice. If the perimeter and area of a circle are numerically equal, then the radius of the circle is –
(a) 2 units
(b) π units
(c) 4 units
(d) 7 units
Solution:
Let the radius of the circle be r units. Then according to question
Area of circle = Perimeter of the circle
Ï€r2 = 2Ï€r
r = 2 units
Hence, the correct answer is (a) 2 units.
