Option 4 : 96 cm2
Given:
Circumference of circle = 176 cm
Breadth of rectangle = 12 cm
Condition:
The radius of the circle is equal to the side of the square. …… (1)
The length of a rectangle is 2/7 of the side of a square. ….. (2)
Formula:
Circumference of circle = 2πr
Area of rectangle = l × b
Let the length of a rectangle be 'l' cm and the breadth of a rectangle be 'b' cm and
Let ‘a’ be the side of the square
Let ‘r’ be the radius of the circle
Now,
Circumference of circle = 176
⇒ 2πr = 176
⇒ 2 × 22/7 × r = 176
⇒ 44/7 × r = 176
⇒ r/7 = 4
⇒ r = 28 cm
Now,
By using the above condition (1)
⇒ 28 = a
Now,
By using the above condition (2)
The length of the rectangle = 2/7 × 28
⇒ 2 × 4
⇒ 8 cm
Now,
Area of rectangle = 8 × 12
⇒ 96 cm2
∴ The Area of the rectangle is 96 cm2
