MensurationModerateSSC CGL 2024

The circumference of a circle is 264 cm. What is its area? (Take π = 22/7)

  1. (A)5544 cm²
  2. (B)11088 cm²
  3. (C)5676 cm²
  4. (D)2772 cm²

Correct answer: (A) 5544 cm²

Circumference = 2πr = 264, so r = 264 × 7 ÷ (2 × 22) = 42 cm. Area = πr² = 22/7 × 42 × 42 = 5544 cm².

Shortcut: With π = 22/7, a circumference of 44k gives radius 7k and area 154k².
