Question

The sides of a rectangular field are 169 m and 154 m long. Its area is equal to the area of a circular field. What is the circumference (in m) of the circular field?
Take π=227\pi = \frac{22}{7}

A.

525

B.

540

C.

572

D.

544

Correct option is C

Given:

Rectangle sides: 169 m and 154 m.

Area of rectangle = Area of circle.

Use π=227\pi=\dfrac{22}{7}​​

Find circumference of the circle.

Formula Used:

Area (rectangle): Ar=l×b_r = l \times b​​

Area (circle): Ac=πr2_c=\pi r^2​.

Circumference (circle): C=2πr2\pi r​.

Solution:
Area of rectangle =169×154=26026 m2169 \times 154 = 26026\ \text{m}^2​​
Set equal: πr2\pi r^2​ = 26026

r2=26026π=26026227=26026×722=8281r^2=\dfrac{26026}{\pi}=\dfrac{26026}{\frac{22}7}=26026 \times \dfrac{7}{22}=8281​​
So r=8281=91 m.=\sqrt{8281}=91\text{ m}.​​

Circumference C=2πr=2×227×91=447×91=44×13=572 m=2\pi r=2\times \dfrac{22}{7}\times 91=\dfrac{44}{7}\times 91=44\times 13=572\text{ m}​​
