Area Problems
Three circles of radius 3.5cm are placed in such a way that each circle touches the other two. The area of the portion enclosed by the circles is
Let the radius of the park be r, then?r + 2r = 288(? + 2)r = 288? [(22/7) + 2]r = 288? r = (288 x 7)/36 = 56 ? Area of the park = (1/2)?r2= (1/2) x (22/7) x 56 x 56= 4928
Let the breadth of the given rectangle be x then length is 2x. thus area of the given rect is 2 x 2 after dec 5cm from length and inc 5cm breadth , new lenght becomes 2x-5 and breadth is x+5.thus new area =(2x-5)(x+5)= 2 x 2 + 5 x - 25 since new area is 75 units greater than original area thus 2 x 2 + 75 = 2 x + 5 x - 25 5x=75+25 5x=100 therefore x=20 hence length of the rectangle is 40 cm.
