The area of a square is 1296 cm2 and the radius of a circle is $\frac{6}{7}$ of the length of a side of the square. What is the ratio of the perimeter of the square and the circumference of the circle? [Use π = $\frac{22}{7}$] |
13 : 11 8 : 11 6 : 11 3 : 7 |
6 : 11 |
The area of a square =1296 cm2 The radius of a circle = $\frac{6}{7}$ of the length of a side of the square We know that, Area of Square = Side2 Perimeter of Square = 4 × Side Circumference of Circle = 2πr So, Area of Square = Side2 = 1296 Side = 32 Perimeter of Square = 4 × Side Perimeter of Square = 4 × 36 = 144 cm The radius of a circle = $\frac{7}{6}$ × 36 = 42 Circumference of Circle = 2 × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 42 = 264 cm Ratio of Perimeter and Circumference = 144 : 264 = 6 : 11 |
