The radius of circle A is three feet less than twice the diameter of circle B. If the sun mmm of the diameters of both circles is 49 feet, find the area and circumference of Circle A

Respuesta :

Answer:

Area of Circle A = 1133.54

Circumference of Circle A= 119.32

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Sum of both circle diameters= 49 feet.

           Circle A radius= Three feet less than twice the diameter of circle B.

Lets assume diameter of Circle B is "x"

∴ Circle A radius (r)= [tex](2x-3)[/tex]

We know, the diameter of circle is [tex]2r[/tex]

Diameter of Circle A is [tex]2\times (2x-3)[/tex]

Next as given sum of both circle diameter is 49 feet.

∴ [tex]2(2x-3)+x= 49\ feet[/tex]

distributing 2 with 2x and -3

⇒ [tex]4x-6+x= 49[/tex]

⇒[tex]5x-6= 49[/tex]

Adding both side by 6

⇒[tex]5x=55[/tex]

Cross multiplying both side.

⇒[tex]x=\frac{55}{5} = 11[/tex]

Diameter of circle B is 11 feet.

Next, subtituting the value of x to get the value of radius for Circle A.

Radius of circle A= [tex](2x-3)[/tex]

⇒ Radius of circle A= [tex](2\times 11-3)= 22-3[/tex]

Radius of circle A= 19 feet.

Area of circle= [tex]\pi r^{2}[/tex]

Taking π= 3.14

Area of circle A= [tex]3.14\times 19^{2} = 3.14\times 361[/tex]

Area of circle A= 1133.54

Circumference of circle= 2πr

Circumference of Circle A= [tex]2\times 3.14\times 19= 119.32[/tex]

Circumference of Circle A= 119.32

The area of circle A is 1,134.57 feet². The circumference of circle A is 119.43 feet.

The diameter of a circle is a straight-line from the center to both ends of the circumference of the circle. A radius is a line from the center of the circle to the circumference of the circle. A radius is half the length of the diameter.

Let:

d = diameter of circle B

r = radius of circle A

r = 2d - 3  

Diameter of circle A = 2 x (2d - 3) = 4d - 6

Diameter of circle B can be determined by solving for d:

4d - 6 + d = 49

5d = 55

d = 11

Diameter of circle A = 4(11) - 6 = 38

Radius of circle A = 38/2 = 19 feet

Area of a circle = πr²

22/7 x 19² = 1,134.57 feet²

Circumference of a circle = πD

22/7 X 38 = 119.43feet
