A circle is inscribed in a rhombus with diagonals 12 cm and 16 cm. The ratio of the area of circle to the area of rhombus is
Correct Answer :
Solution :
Let the diagonals of the rhombus be and .
The area of the rhombus is given by:
The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles. The half-lengths of the diagonals are 6 cm and 8 cm. Thus, the side length a of the rhombus is:
Let r be the radius of the inscribed circle. The radius of the inscribed circle in a rhombus can be found using the area and side length:
The area of the inscribed circle is:
The ratio of the area of the circle to the area of the rhombus is:
