Question:

The area of a circle is 2464 cm2. What is the diameter of this circle? [Use π = $\frac{22}{7}$]

Options:

56 cm

24 cm

48 cm

28 cm

Correct Answer:

56 cm

Explanation:

We know that,

Area of a circle = πr2

Given,

The area of a circle = 2464 cm2

= 2464 = πr2

= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × r2= 2464 

r2= 784

r =\(\sqrt {784}\) = 28

So, diameter = 2r = 2 × 28 = 56
