Concentric Circle Problem Posted on June 18, 2015 by solvemymaths Someone at work showed me this today. I like it! Advertisements Share this:TwitterFacebookLike this:Like Loading... Related
Since the radius of the inner circle is arbitrary, make it zero, so the 10cm measurement is the orange circle’s diameter. Reply
Wouldn’t that make it half of a 10cm diameter circle’s area, which is to say 25/2 pi cm^2? In the other answers, it’s stated as 25pi, am I missing something?

25 pi cm
yup
The area is surely in cm^2.

Now that IS a smart approach!

Nevermind, I WAS missing something.

Is the answer pi(10)^2?
25pi
25*pi
