Question

The semicircle of area 1250 π cm² is inscribed inside a rectangle. The diameter of the semicircle coincides with the length of the rectangle. The area of the rectangle is:

A.

5000 cm²

B.

2000 cm²

C.

3000 cm²

D.

4000 cm²

Correct option is A

Given:
Length of the Rectangle = Diameter of the semicircle
The semicircle of area =1250 π cm2cm^2​​
Formula Used:
Area of semicircle =π×r22 \frac{π × r^2}2​​
Area of rectangle = Length × Width
Solution:


According to the given conditions,
Let the length of the rectangle = 2r
Width of the rectangle = r
Area of rectangle = 2r × r
Area of rectangle = 2r2
Area of semicircle =π×r22 \frac{π × r^2}2
1250 π = π×r22\frac{π × r^2}2​​
=> r2r^2​ = 2500
=> r = 50
Area of rectangle = 2r × r = 2r2r^2​​
Area of rectangle= 5000 cm2cm^2​​
