Class 10 Maths MCQs Chapter 12 Areas Related to Circles

Circle Multiple Choice Question 1. The area of the circle is 154 cm2. The radius of the circle is
(a) 7 cm
(b) 14 cm
(c) 3.5 cm
d) 17.5 cm

Answer/ Explanation

 

Areas Related To Circles Class 10 MCQ With Answer: dExplaination: Reason: Area of circle = 154 cm²
⇒ nr² = 154 cm2
⇒ \(\frac{22}{7}\) × r² = 154
⇒ r² = 154 × \(\frac{22}{7}\)
⇒ r² = 7 × 7 = 49
∴ r = √49 = 7


2. If angle of sector is 60°, radius is 3.5 cm then length of the arc is
(a) 3 cm
(b) 3.5 cm
(c) 3.66 cm
(d) 3.8 cm

Answer/ Explanation

Answer: c
Explaination: Reason: Here r = 3.5 cm = \(\frac{35}{10}\) = \(\frac{7}{2}\) cm θ = 60°
Length of arc = \(\frac{θ}{360}\) × 2πr = \(\frac{60}{360}\) × 2 × \(\frac{22}{7}\) = × \(\frac{7}{2}\) × \(\frac{1}{6}\) × 22 = \(\frac{11}{6\3}\) = 3.66 cm

MCQ Questions for Class 10 Maths Areas Related to Circles with Answers 4

Answer/ Explanation

Answer: d
Explaination: Reason: Here 2πr = 22 cm
2 × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × r = 22
⇒ r = 22 × \(\frac{7}{22}\) × \(\frac{1}{2}\) = \(\frac{7}{2}\) cm
∴ Area of quadrant of circle = \(\frac{1}{4}\)πr² = \(\frac{1}{4}\) × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × \(\frac{7}{2}\) × \(\frac{7}{2}\) = \(\frac{77}{8}\) cm²

6. The area of the circle whose diameter is 21 cm is
(a) 346.5 cm²
(b) 37.68 cm²
(c) 18.84 cm²
(d) 19.84 cm²

Answer/ Explanation

Answer: a
Explaination: Reason: Here diameter = 21 cm
∴ Radius r = \(\frac{21}{2}\) cm
Area of the circle, A = πr²
∴ \(A=\frac{22}{7} \times \frac{21}{2} \times \frac{21}{2}=11 \times 3 \times \frac{21}{2}=\frac{693}{2}=346.5 \mathrm{cm}^{2}\)


7. The area of the sector of a circle with radius 6 cm and of angle 60° is
(a) 9.42 cm²
(b) 37.68 cm²
(c) 18.84 cm²
(d) 19.84 cm²

Answer/ Explanation

Answer: c
Explaination: Reason: Here r = 6 cm, θ = 60°
Area of the sector = \(\frac{θ}{360}\)
∴ Area = \(\frac{60}{360}\) × 3.14 × 6 × 6 = \(\frac{1}{6}\) × 3.14 × 6 × 6 = 3.14 × 6 = 18.84 cm²


8. The area of a circle whose circumference is 22 cm, is
(a) 11 cm²

9. The area of a circle is 154 cm2. Its diameter is
(a) 7 cm
(b) 14 cm
(c) 21 cm
(d) 28 cm

Answer/ Explanation

Answer: b
Explaination: Reason: Here area of the circle, A = 154 cm², Radius, r = ?
Area of the circle = 154 cm² …(Given)
∴ πr² = 154
⇒ \(\frac{22}{7}\) × r² = 154
⇒ r² = 154 × latex]\frac{7}{22}[/latex] = 7 × 7
⇒ r = 7 cm
∴ Diameter of the circle = 2 × r = 2 × 7 = 14 cm


10. The length of the minute hand of a clock is 14 cm. The area swept by the minute hand in 5 minutes is
(a) 153.9 cm²
(b) 102.6 cm²
(c) 51.3 cm²
(d) 205.2 cm²

Answer/ Explanation

Answer: c
Explaination: Reason: Angle swept by the minute hand in 1 minute = (360° ÷ 60) = 6°
∴ θ = 30°
∴ Angle swept by the minute hand in 5 minutes = 6° × 5 = 30°
Length of minute hand (r) = 14 cm
∴ Area swept = \(\frac{θ}{360}\)πr² = \(\frac{30}{360}\) × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 14 × 14 = \(\frac{154}{3}\) = 51.3 cm²


MCQ Questions For Class 10 Maths Areas Related To Circles Question 11. The radii of two circles are 19 cm and 9 cm respectively. The radius of the circle which has circumference equal to the sum of the circumference of two circles is
(a) 35 cm
(b) 10 cm
(c) 21 cm
(d) 28 cm

Answer/ Explanation

Answer: d
Explaination: Reason: Let the radii of two circles be r1 and r2 and the radius of large circle be r.
∴ r1 = 19 cm, r2 = 9 cm
Circumference of two circles = C1+ C2 …(where C = circle)
= 2πr1 + 2πr2 = 2π × 19 + 2π × 9 = 38π + 18π = 56π
∴ Circumference of large circle = 56π
⇒ 2πr = 56π
⇒ r = 28
∴ Radius of large circle = 28 cm
