Solution

\[\text { Let r be the radius and A be the area of the circle at any time  t. Then, }\]
\[A=\pi r^2 \]
\[\Rightarrow\frac{dA}{dt}=2\pi r\frac{dr}{dt}\]
\[\Rightarrow\frac{dA}{dt}=2\pi\times4\times10\left[ \because r = 4 \text { cm and } \frac{dr}{dt} = 10 cm/\sec \right]\]
\[\Rightarrow\frac{dA}{dt} {=80\pi cm}^2 /sec\]
