Question

If the circumference of a circle is 88 cm, then the area of a circle (in sq. cm) is:

• A. $196\pi$
• B. $92\pi$
• C. $64\pi$
• D. $48\pi$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $196\pi$

Given,

Circumference of the circle,

$2\pi r=88$

$\therefore r=\frac{44}{\pi }=14$

Area of circle,

$A=\pi r^2$

$=\pi \times {14}^2$

$=196\pi$
