The area of circle is increased by 22 cm. its radius is increased by 1 cm. The original radius of the circle is
A6 cm
B3.2 cm
C3 cm
D3.5 cm

Answer is : c.) 3 cm

Explanation:

Let original radius be r.

Then, according to the question,
\(\Large \pi (r+1)^{2}-\pi r^{2} =22\)

\(\implies \Large \pi\times [(r+1)^{2}-r^{2}] =22\)

\(\implies \Large \frac{22}{7}\times (r+1+r)(r+1-r) =22\)

\(\implies 2r+1=7 \implies 2r=6\)

\(r= \Large \frac{6}{2} =\text{3 cm}\)
