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

Breadth of rectangle= [44- (12*2)]/2 = (44-24)/2= 20/2= 10cm

Area of rectangle= 12*10 = 120cm2

Radius of circle with circummference 44cm=  2*22/7*r = 44 = r= 4421*7/221*2 1

radius= 7cm

Area of circle= 22/7*7*7

22*7= 154cm2

So, circle occupies more area than rectangle......

Radius=          7cm

Area =            22/7*7*7

                      22*7= 154cm2

Circle occupies more area than rectangle.
