Question
The numerical value of the area of a circle is greater than the numerical value of its circumference. Is this statement true? Why?
Solution
Let r be the radius of the circle.
Area of the circle = πr2
Circumference of the circle = 2πr
Both are equal only when r = 2 and numerical value of circumference is greater than numerical value of area of circle when 0 < r < 2 and if r > 2, then numerical value of area of circle is greater than the numerical value of the circumference of the circle.
