Find the radius of a circle whose circumference is equal to the sum of the circumferences of two circles of radii

    \[15\]

cm and

    \[18\]

cm.

Given Radius of first circle =

    \[{{r}_{1}}\]

 =

    \[15\]

cm

Given Radius of second circle =

    \[{{r}_{2}}\]

 =

    \[18\]

cm

Therefore, Circumference of first circle of radius

    \[{{r}_{1}}\]

    \[2\pi {{r}_{1}}\]

 =

    \[30\pi \]

cm

Circumference of second circle of radius

    \[{{r}_{2}}\]

    \[2\pi {{r}_{2}}\]

 =

    \[36\pi \]

cm

Let us assume the radius of the circle = R

From the given question,

Circumference of circle = Circumference of first circle + Circumference of second circle

    \[2\pi R\]

=

    \[2\pi {{r}_{1}}\]

+

    \[2\pi {{r}_{2}}\]

⇒ 

    \[2\pi R\]

=

    \[30\pi \]

+

    \[36\pi \]

⇒ 

    \[66\pi \]

⇒ R =

    \[33\]

⇒ Radius =

    \[33\]

cm

Therefore ,the required radius of a circle is

    \[33\]

cm.
