The area of a circle with a circumference of 220 cm is equal to the area of a rectangle. The width of the rectangle is 50 cm. Which of the following statement/statements are correct?

  1. The radius of the circle is 70 cm.

  2. The length of the rectangle is 77 cm.

A1 ഉം 2 ഉം തെറ്റാണ്

B1 തെറ്റും 2 ശരിയും ആണ്

C1 ശരിയും 2 തെറ്റും ആണ്

D1 ഉം 2 ഉം ശരിയാണ്

Answer:

B. 1 തെറ്റും 2 ശരിയും ആണ്

Read Explanation:

The only correct statement is "The length of the rectangle is 77 cm77\text{ cm}."

1. Find the radius of the circle

The circumference of a circle is given by C=2πrC = 2\pi r.

  • 220=2×227×r220 = 2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times r

  • 220=447×r220 = \frac{44}{7} \times r

  • r=220×744=5×7=35 cmr = \frac{220 \times 7}{44} = 5 \times 7 = \mathbf{35\text{ cm}}

  • Statement 1 is incorrect (Radius is 35 cm35\text{ cm}, not 70 cm70\text{ cm}).

2. Find the area of the circle

The area of a circle is given by A=πr2A = \pi r^2.

  • A=227×35×35A = \frac{22}{7} \times 35 \times 35

  • A=22×5×35A = 22 \times 5 \times 35

  • A=3850 cm2A = \mathbf{3850\text{ cm}^2}

3. Find the length of the rectangle

The area of the rectangle is equal to the area of the circle (3850 cm23850\text{ cm}^2).
The formula for the area of a rectangle is A=length×widthA = \text{length} \times \text{width}.

  • 3850=length×503850 = \text{length} \times 50

  • length=385050\text{length} = \frac{3850}{50}

  • length=77 cm\text{length} = \mathbf{77\text{ cm}}

  • Statement 2 is correct.

Final Answer

The correct statement is: The length of the rectangle is 77 cm77\text{ cm}.
