Question
The radii of two circles are in the ratio 3: 8. If the difference between their areas is 2695π cm2, find the area of the smaller circle.

Solution
Let the radius of the two circles be 3r and 8r respectively.
area of the circle having radius 3r = π(3r)2
= 9πr2
area of the circle having radius 8r = π(8r)2
= 64πr2
According to the question
64πr2 - 9πr2 = 2695π
55r2 = 2695
r2 = 49
r = 7 cm
Hence the radius of the smaller circle is 3 x 7 = 21 cm
Area of the smaller circle is given by
A = πr2 =`22/7 xx 21^2 = 1386 "cm"^2`

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.
OR
