The radii of two circles are 19 cm and 9 cm,

Question:

The radii of two circles are 19 cm and 9 cm, Find the radius of the circle which has circumference equal to the sum of the circumferences of the two circles.

 

Solution:

Let the radius of the required circle be r.
Now, Circumference of the required circle = Circumference of circle having radius 19 cm + Circumference of circle having radius 9 cm

$\Rightarrow 2 \pi r=2 \pi \times 19+2 \pi \times 9$

$\Rightarrow r=19+9$

 

$\Rightarrow r=28 \mathrm{~cm}$

Hence, the radius of the required circle is 28 cm.
