The circular wire of diameter $10\,cm$ is cut and placed along the circumference of a circle of diameter $1\, metre.$ The angle subtended by the wire at the centre of the circle is equal to

A

$\frac{\pi }{4} \,\,radian$

B

$\frac{\pi }{3}radian$

C

$\frac{\pi }{5}\,\,radian$

D

$\frac{\pi }{{10}}\,\,radian$

Solution

(c) Given, diameter of circular wire $= 10\,cm$,

therefore length of wire = $10\pi $.

Hence required angle $ = \frac{{{\rm{arc}}}}{{{\rm{radius}}}} = \frac{{10\pi }}{{50}} = \frac{\pi }{5}\,\, radian.$
