Diameter of two circles are 15 cm and 25 cm respectively what is the ratio of their circumference

Solution:

Using the formula of the circumference of circle C = 2πr,  we find the radius of the circle.

Radius (r₁) of the 1st circle = 19 cm

Radius (r₂) of the 2nd circle = 9 cm

Let the radius of the 3rd circle be r.

Circumference of the 1st circle = 2πr₁ = 2π (19) = 38π

Circumference of the 2nd circle = 2πr₂ = 2π (9) = 18π

Circumference of the 3rd circle = 2πr

Given that,

Circumference of the 3rd circle = Circumference of the 1st circle + Circumference of the 2nd circle

2πr = 38π + 18π

2πr = 56π

r = 56π/2π

r = 28

Therefore, the radius of the circle that has a circumference equal to the sum of the circumference of the two given circles is 28 cm.
