Solution

The area of a circle (A) with radius (r) is given by,

`A = pir^2`

Now, the rate of change of the area with respect to its radius is given by, 

`(dA)/(dr) = (d)/(dr)(pir^2) = 2pir`

When r = 4 cm, 

`(dA)/(dr) = 2pi (4) = 8pi`

Hence, the area of the circle is changing at the rate of 8π cm when its radius is 4 cm.
