Question:

Find the area (in cm2) and the diameter (in cm), respectively, of a circle whose circumference is 40π cm?

Options:

400π and 40

40 and 400π

400 and 40

40 and 400

Correct Answer:

400π and 40

Explanation:

We know that,

Circumference of circle =2πr

Area of circle=πr²

Given,

The circumference of the circle is 40 π cm

So,

 2πr = 40π

= r = 20

Diameter of circle = 2r = 40cm

Area of circle = π r² = π × (20 × 20) = 400π
