Let's solve ~

Circumference of a circle :

[tex]\qquad \tt \dashrightarrow \:2 \pi r[/tex]

And we have been given that Circumference = 24 cm

So, let's equate them and find radius (r) :

[tex]\qquad \tt \dashrightarrow \:2 \pi r = 24[/tex]

[tex]\qquad \tt \dashrightarrow \:r = \dfrac{ 24}{2 \pi}[/tex]

[tex]\qquad \tt \dashrightarrow \:r = \dfrac{ 12}{3.14}[/tex]

[tex]\qquad \tt \dashrightarrow \:r = 3.82 \: \: cm[/tex]

So, we got the radius here. now let's equate it with expression in terms of x to find value of x

[tex]\qquad \tt \dashrightarrow \: \sqrt{x + 2} = 3.82[/tex]

[tex]\qquad \tt \dashrightarrow \:{x + 2} = (3.82) {}^{2} [/tex]

[tex]\qquad \tt \dashrightarrow \:{x } \approx 14.59 - 2[/tex]

[tex]\qquad \tt \dashrightarrow \:{x } \approx 12.59 \: \: cm[/tex]

x = 12.61

  • 2(3.14)(√x+2) = 24

  • (6.28)(√x+2) = 24

  • √x+2 = 24/6.28

  • x+2 = (24/6.28)²

  • x = (24/6.28)² - 2

  • x = 12.60505497

  • x ≈ 12.61                ( rounded to nearest two decimal places )
