Let radius of circle A be r1 units.
Radius of semi-circle = r2 units.
According to the question, 2πr1 = πr2 + 2r2
⇒ 2πr1 = r2 (π + 2)⇒ r1/center> = π + 2 r2 2π ∴ Ratio of their areas = πr1² = (π + 2)² = (π + 2)² : 4πr² πr2² (2π)² Correct Option: C

Breadth of road = r2 – r1
∴ 2πr2 - 2πr1 = 66
→ 2π(r2 - r1) = 66r2 - r1 = 66 = 66 × 7 2π 2 × 22
= 10.5 metresCorrect Option: A
Breadth of road = r2 – r1
∴ 2πr2 - 2πr1 = 66
→ 2π(r2 - r1) = 66r2 - r1 = 66 = 66 × 7 2π 2 × 22
= 10.5 metres

Let the radius of circular field be r metre, then
2πr - 2r = 30 30 30 60 ⇒ πr - r = 1 15 15 2 ⇒ πr - r = 15 2 ⇒ r(π - 1) = 15 2 ⇒ r 22 - 1 = 15 7 2 ⇒ r × 15 = 15 7 2 ⇒ r = 7 = 3.5 metre 2 Correct Option: D
