How much larger is the side of a square circumscribing a circle 155 cm in
diameter than a square inscribed in the same circle, Fig. 6–72?
8. The radius of a circle is 5.00 m. Find the diameter of another circle containing
4 times the area of the first.
9. Find the distance x in Fig. 6-73.
10. In Fig. 6-74, distance OP is 8.65 units. Find the distance PQ.
11. Figure 6-75 shows a semicircle with a diameter of 105. Find distance PQ.
Applications
12. In a park is a circular fountain whose basin is 22.5 m in circumference. What
is the diameter of the basin?
13. The area of the bottom of a circular pan is 196 in.². What is its diameter?
14. Find the diameter of a circular solar pond that has an area of 125 m².
15. What is the circumference of a circular lake 33.0 m in diameter?
16. The distance around a circular park is 2.50 mi. How many acres does it contain?
(1 sq. mi = 640 acres)
17. A woodcutter uses a tape measure and finds the circumference of a tree to be
95.0 in. Assuming the tree cross-section to be circular, what length of chain-
saw bar is needed to fell the tree? (By cutting from both sides, one can fell a
tree whose diameter is twice the length of the chain-saw bar.)
18. What must be the diameter d of a cylindrical piston so that a pressure of
125 lb/in.² on its circular end will result in a total force of 3610 lb? Hint: The f
a surface is equal to the area of that surface times the pressure on that surface.
