If the radius of a circle is diminished by 10%, then its area is diminished by |
|
Answer» Let the radius of the circle be r Then area of cirlce =πr 2 Given that radius of the circle is diminished by 10% Hence the new radius =r−(10%ofr)=90%ofr= 10 9r Area of the new circle =π( 10 9r ) 2 = 100 81 πr 2 Change in area πr 2 − 100 81 πr 2 = 100 19 πr 2 =0.19πr 2 “Percentage of area diminished is 19”% Let the radius of the circle be r Then area of circle = πr2 Given that radius of the circle is diminished by 10% Hence the new radius = r − (10% of r) = 90% of r = 9r/10 Area of the new circle = π (9r/10)2 = 81/100 πr2 Change in area πr2 − 81/100 πr2 = 19/100 πr2 = 0.19 πr2 Percentage of area diminished is 19%. |
