The perimeter of an equilateral triangle is equal to the circumference of a circle. If each side of this equilateral triangle is 88 cm long, then what will be the length of the diameter of the circle mentioned above? [Use π = $\frac{22}{7}$] |
21 cm 63 cm 84 cm 42 cm |
84 cm |
We know that, Circumference of circle = 2πr where, r = Radius The perimeter of an equilateral triangle = 3s where s = side. Side = 88 ( Given) The perimeter of an equilateral triangle = 3a = 3 × 88 According to the question Circumference of circle = 2πr = 3 × 88 = 2 × \(\frac{22}{7}\)× r = r = 42 = diameter = 2r = 2 × 42 = 84cm |
