Question

The area of a circular playground is 22176 m2. Find the cost of fencing this ground at the rate of Rs 50 per metre.

Sum

Solution

According to the question,

Area of the circular playground = 22176 m2  ...(Given)

Let r be the radius of the circle.

∴ πr2 = 22176

⇒ `22/7 "r"^2` = 22176

⇒ r2 = `22176 xx 22/7`

⇒ r2 = 7056

⇒ r = 84

∴ Radius of the circular playground = 84 m

Now, circumference of the circle = 2πr

= `2 xx 22/7 xx 84`

= 528 m

Cost of fencing 1 meter of ground = Rs 50

∴ Cost of fencing the total ground = Rs 528 × 50 = Rs 26,400
