Solution

The radius of a circle whose circumference is equal to the sum of the circumferences of the two circles of diameters 36 cm and 20 cm is 28 cm.

Explanation:

Circumference of circle = Sum of circumference of two circles

`[("r"_1 = 36/2 = 18  "cm"),("r"_2 = 20/2 = 10  "cm")]`

⇒ 2πR = 2πr1 + 2πr2

2πR = 2π(r1 + r2)

⇒ R = r1 + r2 = 18 + 10

⇒ R = 28 cm.
