Circumcircle area of right triangle 6-8-10:\nFind the area of the circumcircle of a triangle with sides 6 cm, 8 cm, and 10 cm.

Difficulty: Easy

275/7
550/7
2200/7
1100/7
None of these

Correct Answer: 550/7

Explanation:

Introduction / Context:
A 6-8-10 triangle is right-angled. For a right triangle, circumradius R = hypotenuse / 2. Area of circumcircle = πR^2.

Step-by-Step Solution:

Hypotenuse = 10 ⇒ R = 10/2 = 5 cm.Area = π * 5^2 = 25π.Using π = 22/7 ⇒ area = 25 * (22/7) = 550/7.

Final Answer:
550/7
