Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFGiven:
Length of rectangle = 180 m
Breadth of rectangle = 120 m
Area b/w circle and rectangle = 40000 m2
Formula used:
Area of rectangle = Length × Breadth
Area of circle = π(radius)2
Calculation:
According to the question,
Area of the circle - area of rectangle = 40000
Using the above formula
⇒ πr2 - (120 × 180) = 40000
⇒ \(\frac{22}{7}\)r2 = 40000 + 21600 = 61600
⇒ r2 = \(\frac{7}{22}\) × 61600 = 19600
⇒ r2 = (140)2
⇒ r = 140
∴ The radius of the circle is 140 m.
