 Let the original radius be r cm.
 According to the question,
 π(r + 1)² – πr² = 22
 ⇒ π(r² + 2r + 1–r²) = 22⇒ (2r + l) × 22 = 22 7 ⇒ 2r + l = 22 × 7 = 7 22 ⇒ 2r = 7 - 1 = 6 ⇒ r = 6 = 3 cm. 2 Correct Option: CUsing Rule 14,

 Required ratio = π(4r)² : π(2r)² : π(r)²
 = 16 : 4 : 1Correct Option: AUsing Rule 14, 
 Required ratio = π(4r)² : π(2r)² : π(r)²
 = 16 : 4 : 1

 Let the radius of the circle be r cm. 
 According to the question,2πr = 11 ⇒ 2 × 22 r = 11 7 ⇒ r = 11 × 7 = 7 cm. 2 × 22 4 ∴ Area of the sector AOB = θ × πr² 360° = 60° × 22 × 7 × 7 sq. cm 360° 7 4 4 = 77 = 1 29 sq.cm. 48 48 Correct Option: AUsing Rule 17,

 If the radius of the circular park be r metre, then 2πr = 176= 2 × 22 × r = 176 7 ⇒ r = 176 × 7 = 28 metre 2 × 22 
 Radius of the park with road = 28 + 7 = 35 metre∴ Area of the road = 22 (35² - 28²) 7 = 22 × 63 × 7 = 1386 m² 7 Correct Option: AUsing Rule 14,

                        View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum Using Rule 10 and 14,  
 Side of the square = 8 cm
 ∴ Area of the square = 8 × 8 = 64 sq.cm.
 Area of the four sectors = π × 4² = 16π sq.cm.
 ∴ Required area = 64 – 16π
 = 16 (4 – π) sq.cm.Correct Option: DUsing Rule 10 and 14,  
 Side of the square = 8 cm
 ∴ Area of the square = 8 × 8 = 64 sq.cm.
 Area of the four sectors = π × 4² = 16π sq.cm.
 ∴ Required area = 64 – 16π
 = 16 (4 – π) sq.cm.
