Find the area of the largest circle that can be drawn inside a rectangle with sides 8m × 9m. |
36 m2 50\(\frac{2}{7}\) m2 63\(\frac{9}{14}\) m2 201\(\frac{1}{7}\) m2 |
50\(\frac{2}{7}\) m2 |
Radius (r) of largest circle that can be drawn inside the rectangle = \(\frac{smallest\;side}{2}\) = \(\frac{8}{2}\) = 4 Area of circle = \(\pi \) r2 = \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 42 = \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 16 =\(\frac{352}{7}\) = 50\(\frac{2}{7}\) m2 |
