Options

  • 10 \[\sqrt{5}\]

  • 10\[\sqrt{3}\]cm 

  • 10\[\sqrt{5}\]

  •  10\[\sqrt{2}\]

MCQ

Solution

The circle can be divided into four parts of equal area by drawing three concentric circles inside it as,

It is given that OB = 20 cm. Let OA = x.

Since the circle is divided into four parts of equal area by the three concentric circles, we have,

Area of the fourth region `=1/4xx`Area of the given circle 

`pixx(20^2-x^2)=1/4xxpixx20^2`

`400-x^2=100`

`x^2=300`

`x-10sqrt3 cm`
