The cost of building a fence around a circular field is ₹7,425 at the rate of ₹13.50 per foot. What is the area of the circular field? [Use π = $\frac{22}{7}$] |
25018.5 ft2 23864.4 ft2 24644.5 ft2 24062.5 ft2 |
24062.5 ft2 |
Let, radius of the circular field = r Circumference of the circular field = 2πr Rs. 13.5 is needed to build a fence of = 1 foot. Rs. 7425 is needed to build a fence of = \(\frac{7425}{13.5}\) = 550 ft. Circumference of the circular field = 550 ft. According to problem, = 2πr = 550 = r = 87.5 Area of the circular field = πr2 = \(\frac{22}{7}\)× (87.5)2 = 24062.5 sq. ft. |
