Two circles having radii $3.5 c m$ and $4.8 c m$ touch each other internally. Find the distance between their centres.

Open in App

Solution

Since the two circles are given to touch each other internally then distance between their centres $=$ difference between their radii.
So distance between their radii $= 4.8 - 3.5 = 1.3$ cm.
