Prove that the area of a circular path of uniform width $h$ surrounding a circular region of radius $r$ is $\pi h(2r + h)$.
To do:
We have to prove that the area of a circular path of uniform width $h$ surrounding a circular region of radius $r$ is $\pi h(2r + h)$.
Solution:
Radius of the inner circle $= r$
Width of the path $= h$
This implies,
Outer radius $R = r + h$
Therefore,
Area of the path $= \pi R^2 - \pi r^2$
$= \pi [(r + h)^2 - r^2]$
$= \pi (r^2 + h^2 + 2rh – r^2)$
$= \pi (2rh + h^2)$
$= \pi h (2r + h)$
Hence proved.
