Question:The areas of two concentric circles forming a ring are 154 sq. and 616 sq.cm. The breadth of the ring is :
A `7 cm`
B `14 cm`
C `21 cm`
D `28 cm`
/98
+ Answer
A
+ ExplanationLet inner radius = r & outer radius = R.
Then,`22/7 xx r^2 = 154 or r^2`
`= (154 xx 7/22).` So, r = 7.
Also,` 22/7 xx R^2 = 616 or R^2`
`= (616 xx 7/22) or R = 14`
:. Breadth of the ring
`= (R - r) = (14 - 7) = 7 cm.`
