    The radius of a circle is increased by 200%, then its area will increase by:

    A) 800%               

    B) 400%

    C) 200%               

    D) None of the above

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Let the initial radius be \[100cm.\] Area = \[\pi \times {{100}^{2}}\,c{{m}^{2}}=10000\pi \,c{{m}^{2}}\] New radius = 300% of 100 =         300 cm New Area \[\pi \,{{\left( 300 \right)}^{2}}=90000\,\pi \,c{{m}^{2}}\] % increase in Area =         \[\frac{90000\pi -10000\pi }{10000\pi }\times 100\] =         \[\frac{800000\pi }{10000\pi }\times 100=~\mathbf{800}%\]
