  1. Correct Question:

    The area enclosed between the concentric circles is 770 cm². If the radius of the outer circle is 21 cm, find the radius of the inner circle.

    Answer:

    The radius of the inner circle is 14 cm.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given that:

    The area between a concentric circle is 770 cm².

    The radius of the outer circle is 21 cm.

    To Find:

    The radius of the inner circle.

    Let us assume:

    The radius of the inner circle be x.

    Formula:

    Area between a concentric circle = π(R² – r²)

    Where,

    R = The radius of the outer circle

    r = The radius of the inner circle

    Finding the radius of the inner circle:

    According to the question.

    ⟶ π(21² – x²) = 770

    ⟶ π(441 – x²) = 770

    ⟶ 441 – x² = 770/π

    ⟶ 441 – x² = (770 × 7)/22

    ⟶ 441 – x² = 245

    ⟶ x² = 441 – 245

    ⟶ x² = 196

    ⟶ x = √196

    ⟶ x = 14

    ∴ The radius of the inner circle = 14 cm

  2. Let the radius of inner circle be r.

    Area enclosed between two concentric circles

    ⇒ π[(21)2 – (r)2] = 770

    ⇒ (21)2 – (r)2 = 770/π = 770 × 7/22

    = 35 × 7

    ⇒ (21)2 – (r)2 = 245

    ⇒ 441 – r2 = 245

    ⇒ 441 – 245 = r2

    ⇒ 196 = r2

    ⇒ 14 = r

    The radius of inner circle = 14 cm.
