What is the exact circumference of a circle with a radius of 15 cm?


A: 10π cm

B: 15π cm

C:30π cm

D: 60π cm

Verified Answer :

Answer:

C:30π cm  

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the circumference of a circle is

C = 2πr

Since the radius is 15 cm, this makes 2r = 2(15) = 30 cm.  This makes the circumference

C = 30π cm

Answer: C: 30π cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference of a circle is given by :-

\(C= 2\pi r\) , where r is the radius of the circle.

We are given that : The radius of the circle = 15 cm

then , the circumference of the circle will be :-

\(C= 2\pi (15)\ cm\\\\\Rightarrow\ C=2\times15\pi\ cm\\\\\Rightarrow\ C=30\pi \cm\)

Therefore, the exact circumference of a circle with a radius of 15 cm = \(30\pi \cm\)

Thus , the correct option is C: 30π cm
