MensurationModerateSSC CGL 2024
The circumference of a circle is 264 cm. What is its area? (Take π = 22/7)
- (A)1764 cm²
- (B)5676 cm²
- (C)5544 cm²
- (D)2772 cm²
Correct answer: (C) 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.
