The measurement of a rectangle is 16 feet by 12 feet. What is the area of the smallest circle that can cover this rectangle entirely (so that no part of the rectangle is outside the circle)?

  • A. 100 π sq. ft
  • B. 100 π sq. ft
  • C. 100 π sq. ft
  • D. 100 π sq. ft

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Diameter of rectangle= √12^2+16^2 =√400 =20

So, diameter of circule =20 ft.

r=20/2=10 ft.

Now, area of circle =π* r^2= π*10^2= 100π sq.ft
