A 4 4 cm long wire is bent in the shape of a rectangle of length 12 cm. Then, it is bent in the form of a circle.
What is the difference between the areas enclosed by the rectangle and the circle?
stanu14 has correctly solved the question.
From third line, explanation is as follows:
Circumference of circle = length of wire
2r = 44 cm
⇒ r = 7 cm
Area of circle = r2 = 154 cm2
Area of rectangle = 120 cm2
Required difference = 154 cm2 – 120 cm2 = 34 cm2
