Question
Find the length of the rope by which a bull must be tethered in order that it may be able to graze an area of 2464 m2
Advertisements
Solution
If the bull is tethered by a rope then the area it can graze is a circular area of radius
= length of the rope
Area of the circle = 2464 m2
πr2 = 2464 m2
`22/7 xx "r"^2` = 2464
r2 = `2464 xx 7/22`
= 122 × 7
= 16 × 7 × 7
r2 = 42 × 72
r = 4 × 7 = 28 m
length of the rope r = 28 m

Read the following passage:
People of a circular village Dharamkot want to construct a road nearest to it. The road cannot pass through the village. But the people want the road at a shortest distance from the centre of the village. Suppose the road starts from A which is outside the circular village (as shown in the figure) and touch the boundary of the circular village at B such that AB = 20 m. Also the distance of the point A from the centre O of the village is 25 m. |
Based on the above information, answer the following questions:
- If B is the mid-point of AC, then find the distance AC.
- Find the shortest distance of the road from the centre of the village.
- Find the circumference of the village.
