Question: If two circles are similar, and the radius of the first circle is 4 cm, what is the radius of the second circle if the ratio of their areas is 1:4?
Options:
Correct Answer: 8 cm
Solution:
The area ratio is the square of the radius ratio. If area ratio = 1:4, then radius ratio = 1:2. Therefore, the radius of the second circle = 4 * 2 = 8 cm.
