A circular park is surrounded by a road 21 m wide. If the radius of the park is 105 m, find the area of the road.
15246 m2
Solution
Area of circle =
Given that AB = 105m, BC = 21m
Where AB is radius of park and BC is wide of road
AC=AB+BC
AC=105+21=126 m
Area of big circle=
Area of small circle =
Area of road =Area of big circle - Area of small circle
=49896-34650=15246 m2
