Q12:
The circumference of a circle is $31.4$ cm. Find the radius and the area of the circle? (Take $\pi = 3.14$)
Solution :
Given Variables & Initial Setup
Let us define the fundamental parameters of the circle based on the provided data:
- Circumference ($C$) = $31.4 \text{ cm}$
- Mathematical constant ($\pi$) $\approx 3.14$
- Radius ($r$) = ?
- Area ($A$) = ?
Step 1: Deriving the Radius from the Circumference
[Per the geometric definition of a circle's circumference], the total arc length (perimeter) of a circle is directly proportional to its radius. The governing equation is:
$C = 2\pi r$
By substituting the given values into the equation, we can isolate the unknown variable, $r$:
$31.4 = 2 \times 3.14 \times r$
$31.4 = 6.28 \times r$
Dividing both sides by $6.28$ to solve for $r$:
$r = \frac{31.4}{6.28}$
$r = 5 \text{ cm}$
Step 2: Geometric Visualization
The following diagram illustrates the spatial relationship between the center, the calculated radius, and the given circumference of the circle.
Step 3: Calculating the Area of the Circle
[Per the fundamental theorem of circle geometry], the area $A$ enclosed by a circle is proportional to the square of its radius. The formula is expressed as:
$A = \pi r^2$
Substitute the derived radius ($r = 5 \text{ cm}$) and the given value of $\pi$ ($3.14$) into the area formula:
$A = 3.14 \times (5)^2$
First, evaluate the exponent:
$A = 3.14 \times 25$
Next, perform the multiplication to find the final area:
$A = 78.5 \text{ cm}^2$
Final Solution: The radius of the circle is $5 \text{ cm}$ and the area of the circle is $78.5 \text{ cm}^2$.
