Circle or Semi Circle Question 1:

What is the radius (in m) of a circular field whose area is equal to six times the area of a triangular field whose sides are 35 m, 53 m and 66 m?. (Take π = 22/7)

  1. 42° 
  2. 14√3
  3. 14√6
  4. More than one of the above
  5. None of the above

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 1 : 42° 

Circle or Semi Circle Question 1 Detailed Solution

Given:

Area of circular field = 6 × area of triangular field

Formula used:

Area of circular field = πr2, where r is a radius of circle.

Area of triangle = √s (s - a) (s - b) (s - c),

where s = (a + b + c)/2

a, b and c are sides of triangle respectively.

Calculation:

a = 35 m, b = 53 m and c = 66 m

s = (35 + 53 + 66)/2

⇒ s = 77

Area of triangle = √s(s - a) (s - b) (s - c)

⇒ √77 (77 - 35) (77 - 53) (77 - 66)

⇒ √77 × 42 × 24 × 11

⇒ √7 × 11 × 2 × 3 × 7 × 2 × 3 × 2 × 2 × 11

⇒ 11 × 7 × 2 × 2 × 3

⇒ 924 m2

Now, 6 × Area of triangle = Area of circle

⇒ 924 × 6 = πr2

⇒ (924 × 6 × 7)/22 = r2

⇒ 1764 = r2

⇒ 42 = r

∴ Radius of circle is 42 m.

Circle or Semi Circle Question 2 Detailed Solution

Given:

Number of revolutions = 5000

Distance covered = 11 km = 1100000 cm

Formula used:

Circumference of circle = 2πr

Calculation:

Circumference of circle = 1100000/5000

⇒ 220 cm

According to the question,

⇒ 2πr = 220 cm

⇒ 2 × (22/7) × r = 220 cm

Given:

Diameter of the wheel = 154 cm

Radius of the wheel = 154/2 = 77 cm

Speed = 33km/h

Formula used:

Circumference of a circle = 2πr

where r → radius of a circle

Distance covered = speed × time

Calculation:

Distance covered in one revolution = Circumference of wheel

⇒ 2πr = 2 × 22/7 × 77 = 484 cm

Speed = 33 km/hr = 33 × 100000/60 = 55000 cm/min

∴ Total Revolutions covered in one min

⇒ 55000/484 = 113.63 ≈ 114

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 3 : 7° 

Circle or Semi Circle Question 4 Detailed Solution

Given:

Area of a square shape wire = 81 cm2

Formulas used:

Perimeter of a square with side 'a' = 4a 

Area of square with side 'a' = a2

Perimeter of a semicircle = 2πr/2 + 2r  = πr + 2r 

Calculation:

F1 Arun K 19-11-21 Savita D9

Area of square = 81 cm2

⇒ a2 = 92

⇒ a = 9 cm 

Perimeter of square = 4 × 9 = 36 cm 

⇒ Perimeter of square = Perimeter of semicirlce 

⇒ 36 cm = 22/7 × r + 2r 

⇒ 36 = (22r + 14r)/7 

⇒ 36 = 36r/7 

⇒ 1 = r/7 

⇒ r = 7 cm 

∴ The radius of the semicircle is 7 cm.

Circle or Semi Circle Question 5 Detailed Solution

Given:

Area of circle = 154 cm2

Formula used:

Area of circle = πr2

Circumference of circle = 2πr

Calculation:

154 = πr2

⇒ r2 = 154 × (7/22)

⇒ r2 = 7 × 7

⇒ r2 = 49

⇒ r = √49

⇒ r = 7 cm

Circumference = 2πr

⇒ Circumference = 2 × (22/7) × 7

⇒ Circumference = 44 cm

∴ The correct answer is option 2.

Given:

Diameter of semicircle = 14√2 cm

Radius = 14√2/2 = 7√2 cm

Total no. of chords = 6

Concept:

Since the chords are equal in length, they will subtend equal angles at the centre. Calculate the area of one sector and subtract the area of the isosceles triangle formed by a chord and radius, then multiply the result by 6 to get the desired result.

Formula used:

Area of sector = (θ/360°) × πr2

Area of triangle = 1/2 × a × b × Sin θ

Calculation:

F4 Aashish S 21-12-2020 Swati D8

The angle subtended by each chord = 180°/no. of chord

⇒ 180°/6

⇒ 30°

Area of sector AOB = (30°/360°) × (22/7) × 7√2 × 7√2

⇒ (1/12) × 22 × 7 × 2

⇒ (77/3) cm2

Area of triangle AOB = 1/2 × a × b × Sin θ

⇒ 1/2 × 7√2 × 7√2 × Sin 30°

⇒ 1/2 × 7√2 × 7√2 × 1/2

⇒ 49/2 cm2

∴ Area of shaded region = 6 × (Area of sector AOB - Area of triangle AOB)

⇒ 6 × [(77/3) – (49/2)]

⇒ 6 × [(154 – 147)/6]

⇒ 7 cm2

Area of shaded region is 7 cm2

Given : 

Length of an arc of a circle is 4.5π.

Area of ​​the sector circumscribed by it is 27π cm2.

Formula Used : 

Area of sector = θ/360 × πr2

Length of arc = θ/360 × 2πr

Calculation : 

F1 Railways Savita 31-5-24 D1

According to question,

⇒ 4.5π = θ/360 × 2πr 

⇒ 4.5 = θ/360 × 2r   -----------------(1)

⇒ 27π = θ/360 × πr2 

⇒ 27 = θ/360 × r2       ---------------(2)

Doing equation (1) ÷ (2)

⇒ 4.5/27 = 2r/πr2

⇒ 4.5/27 = 2/r

⇒ r = (27 × 2)/4.5

⇒ Diameter = 2r = 24

∴ The correct answer is 24.

  2. 1500
  3. 5500
  4. 3500

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 1 : 2500

Circle or Semi Circle Question 8 Detailed Solution

Download Solution PDF

Given:

Radius of the wheel of car = 14 cm

Speed of car = 132 km/hr

Formula Used:

Circumference of the wheel = \(2\pi r\) 

1 km = 1000 m

1m = 100 cm

1hr = 60 mins.

Calculation:

Distance covered by the wheel in one minute = \(\frac{132 \times 1000 \times 100}{60}\) = 220000 cm.

Circumference of the wheel = \(2\pi r\) = \(2\times \frac{22}{7} \times 14\) = 88 cm

∴ Distance covered by wheel in one revolution = 88 cm

∴ The number of revolutions in one minute = \(\frac{220000}{88}\) = 2500.

∴ Therefore the correct answer is 2500.

In a circle with centre O, chords PR and QS meet at the point T, when produced, and PQ is a diameter. If \(\angle\)ROS = 42º, then the measure of \(\angle\)PTQ is

  1. 58º
  2. 59º
  3. 69º
  4. 48º

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 3 : 69º

Circle or Semi Circle Question 9 Detailed Solution

Download Solution PDF

Given:

ROS = 42º

Concept used:

The sum of the angles of a triangle = 180°

Exterior angle = Sum of opposite interior angles

Angle made by an arc at the centre = 2 × Angle made by the same arc at any point on the circumference of the circle

Calculation:

F2 SSC Pranali 13-6-22 Vikash kumar D8

Join RQ and RS

According to the concept,

∠RQS = ∠ROS/2

⇒ ∠RQS = 42°/2 = 21°   .....(1)

Here, PQ is a diameter.

So, ∠PRQ = 90°  [∵ Angle in the semicircle = 90°]

In ΔRQT, ∠PRQ is an exterior angle

So, ∠PRQ = ∠RTQ + ∠TQR

⇒ 90° = ∠RTQ + 21°  [∵ ∠TQR = ∠RQS = 21°]

⇒ ∠RTQ = 90° - 21° = 69°

⇒ ∠PTQ = 69°

∴ The measure of  ∠PTQ is 69°

  2. 62º
  3. 28º
  4. 66º

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 3 : 28º

Circle or Semi Circle Question 10 Detailed Solution

Download Solution PDF

Given:

AB is a diameter of a circle with a center O

∠APC = 62º

Concept used:

The radius/diameter of a circle is always perpendicular to the tangent line.

Sum of all three angles of a triangle = 180°

Calculation:

 F1 Savita SSC 4-10-22 D1

Minor arc AC will create angle CBA

∠APC = 62º = ∠APB

∠BAP = 90° (diameter perpendicular to tangent)

In Δ APB,

∠APB + ∠BAP + PBA = 180° 

⇒ PBA = 180° - (90° + 62°)

⇒ PBA = 28° 

∴ The measure of minor arc AC is 28° 

Mistake PointsMeasure of the minor arc AC is asked,

∠ABC marks arc AC, 

∴ ∠ABC is the correct angle to show a measure of arc AC

This is a previous year's question, and according to the commission, this is the correct answer.

Option 1 : 16978.50 cm2

Circle or Semi Circle Question 12 Detailed Solution

Download Solution PDF

Given:

Length of an arc = 23.1 cm

Angle subtended on center by arc = 18°

Formula used:

Length of an arc = (2 × π × × θ)/360

Area of circle = π × R2

Where, R = radius

Calculation:

Length of an arc = (2 × π × × θ)/360

⇒ 23.1 = (2 × 22 × R × 18)/(360 × 7)

⇒ 23.1 = (22 × R)/(10 × 7)

⇒ R = (2.1 × 70)/2 = 73.5 cm

Area of circle = π × R2

⇒ (22/7) × 73.5 × 73.5

⇒ 22 × 10.5 × 73.5

⇒ 16978.50 cm2

∴ The correct answer is 16978.50 cm2.
