1 :
Question
2
:
The radii of twocircles are 8 cm and 6 cm, respectively. Find the radius of the circle havingarea equal to the sum of the areas of the two circles.
Answer
2 :
Radius of 1st circle = 8 cm(given)
∴ Area of 1st circle = π(8)2 =64π
Radius of 2nd circle = 6 cm(given)
∴ Area of 2nd circle = π(6)2 =36π
So,
The sum of 1st and 2nd circlewill be = 64π+36π = 100π
Now, assume that the radius of 3rd circle= R
∴ Area of the circle 3rd circle = πR2
It is given that the area of the circle 3rd circle= Area of 1st circle + Area of 2nd circle
Or, πR2 = 100πcm2
R2 = 100cm2
So, R = 10cm
Question
3
:
Fig. 12.3 depicts anarchery target marked with its five scoring regions from the centre outwards asGold, Red, Blue, Black and White.
Answer
3 :
The diameter of the region representing Gold score is 21 cm and each of the other bands is 10.5 cm wide. Find the area of each of the five scoring regions.

Solution:
The radius of 1st circle, r1 =21/2 cm (as diameter D is given as 21 cm)
So, area of gold region = π r12 =π(10.5)2 = 346.5 cm2
Now, it is given that each of the other bandsis 10.5 cm wide,
So, the radius of 2nd circle,r2 = 10.5cm+10.5cm = 21 cm
Thus,
∴ Area of red region = Area of 2nd circle − Areaof gold region = (πr22−346.5) cm2
= (π(21)2 − 346.5) cm2
= 1386 − 346.5
= 1039.5 cm2
Similarly,
The radius of 3rd circle, r3 =21 cm+10.5 cm = 31.5 cm
The radius of 4th circle, r4 =31.5 cm+10.5 cm = 42 cm
The Radius of 5th circle, r5 =42 cm+10.5 cm = 52.5 cm
For the area of nth region,
A = Area of circle n – Area of circle (n-1)
∴ Area of blue region (n=3) = Area of third circle – Area ofsecond circle
= π(31.5)2 – 1386 cm2
= 3118.5 – 1386 cm2
= 1732.5 cm2
∴ Area of black region (n=4) = Area of fourth circle – Area ofthird circle
= π(42)2 – 1386 cm2
= 5544 – 3118.5 cm2
= 2425.5 cm2
∴ Area of white region (n=5) = Area of fifth circle – Area offourth circle
= π(52.5)2 – 5544 cm2
= 8662.5 – 5544 cm2
= 3118.5 cm2
