Therefore, radius of outer circle is = π2 = π1 + 7
π2 = 56 + 7

Step 2: Find the area of each circle in the given concentric circle:
Required area of road = area of outer circle - area of inner circle

Solution:
Step 1: Find the circumference\area of two circles using given radius:
Let π and π be the radii of two given circles and radius of resultant circle π π
Given, π = 19 cm, π = 9 cm and
Now, circumference of circle with radius π = 2ππ
Circumference πΆ1 = 2π(19)
= 38 π cm
and
Circumference of circle with radius π = 2ππ
Circumference πΆ2 = 2π (9)
= 18 π
= 18 π cm
Step 2: Find the circumference/area of resultant circle:
Resultant circumference of two circles = πΆ1 + πΆ2

= 56 π
Resultant circumference of two circles = 56 π cm
Step 3: Find the radius of the required circle:

Given, π = 8 cm, π = 6 cm and
Now
Area of circle with radius π = ππ 2

Thus, area of circle π΄1 = 64 πππ2
and
Area of circle with radius π = ππ 2
= π (6)2
Area of circle π΄2 = 36 πππ2
Step 2: Find the circumference/area of resultant circle:
Resultant Area of two circles = π΄1 + π΄2

Resultant Area of two circles is 100 π cm2
Step 3: Find the radius of the required circle:
Area of circle = ππ π2 = Resultant Area of two circles
100 π = ππ π2
100 = π π2
Radius of the circle π π = 10
