Circle Geometry Questions
If error in measuring diameter of a circle is 4 %, the error in circumference of the circle would be :
C
Correct answer
Explanation
Since $C\propto d$ therefore error in measurement of $C$ is same as error in measurement of $d$.
Hence, option (C) is correct.
Calculate area enclosed by a circle of diameter $1.06\ m$ to correct number of significant figures.
-
$ 0.883 m^2$
-
$ 0.0883 m^2$
-
$ 0.88333 m^2$
-
$ 0.8830 m^2$
A
Correct answer
Explanation
Area = $ \pi (\dfrac{d}{2})^2 $
$ \Rightarrow Area = \dfrac{22}{7}\times 0.53^2 = 0.882828 $
But, no of significant in diameter should be equal to the no. of significant in Area, so Ans is $ 0.883 m^2$

What is the area of a circle with radius 5?
A
Correct answer
Explanation
The area of a circle is given by the formula πr^2. Substituting r = 5, we get π(5)^2 = 25π.
The area of a circle is given by the formula:
A
Correct answer
Explanation
The area of a circle is given by the formula πr^2, where r is the radius of the circle.
The circumference of a circle is given by the formula:
B
Correct answer
Explanation
The circumference of a circle is given by the formula 2πr, where r is the radius of the circle.
A circle is a two-dimensional geometric figure that is defined by a fixed point (the center) and a fixed distance (the radius) from the center to any point on the circle. What is the area of a circle with radius 5?
A
Correct answer
Explanation
The area of a circle with radius r is given by the formula πr^2. Therefore, the area of a circle with radius 5 is π * 5^2 = 25π.
A circle has a radius of 10 cm. What is the circumference of the circle in centimeters?
A
Correct answer
Explanation
The circumference of a circle is given by 2πr, where r is the radius. Substituting r = 10 cm, we get the circumference as 2π * 10 cm = 20π cm.
