As diameter of a circle increase,area also increase or not?
2 Answers
Yes.
Explanation:
As the diameter of the circle increases, both the area and the circumference of the circle get larger.
Take, for example, a circle with a diameter of
#"Diameter"# #color(white)"xxxx"# #"Area"#
#color(white)"xxx"6# #color(white)"xxxxxxxx"9pi#
#color(white)"xxx"7# #color(white)"xxxxxxxx"12.25pi#
Just increasing the diameter by 1 digit makes the area greater. So yes, as the diameter increases, the area increases.
Explanation:
The formula for the area of a circle is given by:
Where
Let
Since the radius is half the diameter, the radius is:
If the diameter increases by a factor
Then the radius increases by a factor:
And the area increases by a factor:
