Answer to Problem 33WE
Area of the circle formed will be
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Two intersecting sphere with radii 15 cm and 20 cm respectively. The centres of the spheres are 25cm apart.
Calculation:
The two intersecting circle is sketched below:
From the above figure, ABO is a right
ABO’ is also a right angled triangle. Therefore,
From equation (1) and (2)
Substitute
Thus, radius of the circle formed will be 12 cm.
Therefore, the area of the circle formed will be
Hence,
Area of the circle formed will be
