5.2 Perimeter and Area of a Circle — A Review
The distance covered by travelling once around a circle is its perimeter, usually called its
circumference. You also know from your earlier classes, that circumference of a circle bears
a constant ratio with its diameter. This constant ratio is denoted by the Greek letter (read
as ‘pi’). In other words,

The cost of fencing a circular field at the rate of R s 24 per metre is Rs 5280. The field
is to be ploughed at the rate of R s 0.50 per m2. Find the cost of ploughing the field. (Take
= )
Solution:Length of the fence (in metres) = = = 220 «ÄÃ.
So, circumference of the field = 220 m. Therefore, if r metres is the radius of the field,
then, 2 r = 220 Or 2 x x r = 220 ⇒ r = = 35m
Therefore, area of the field = πr = x 352 = (22 x 5 x 35)m2
Total cost of ploughing the field at the rate of 0.50/sqm = (22 x 5 x 35) x 0.5 = gÀÆ 1925

Exercise 5.1
[Unless stated otherwise, use = ]
1. The radii of two circles are 19 cm and 9 cm respectively.Find the radius of the circle
which has circumference equal to the sum of the circumferences of the two circles.
Let the required radius = R. Therefore the circumference C = 2πR
The circumference of the circle of radius 19 cm = 2π × 19 = 38π cm
The circumference of the circle of radius = 2π × 9 = 18π cm
The sum of the circumference of two circles = 38π + 18π = 56π cm
⇒ 2πR = 56π cm [According to question] ⇒ 2R = 56 cm ⇒ R = 28 cm
2. The radii of two circles are 8 cm and 6 cm respectively. Find the radius of the circle
having area equal to the sum of the areas of the two circles.
 SSLC Mathematics Solutions Part – 1 YK
Let the required radius = R. Therefore the area = πR2
The area of the circle of radius 8 cm = π × 82 = 64π cm2
The area of the circle of radius 6 cm = π × 62 = 36π cm2
The sum of the areas of two circles = 64π cm2 + 36π cm2 = 100π cm2
According to question,
πR2 = 100π cm2⇒ R2 = 100cm2 ⇒ R2 = 100 cm2 ⇒ R = 10 cm
