The formula for the area of a circle is, A = πr2

If the area is tripled then the larger circle has an area of A2 = πR2 (where R is the new radius)

But, πR2 = 3πr2 : R2 = 3r2 : R = r√3

The circumference of the original circle was 2πr.

The circumference of the larger circle is 2πR = 2πr√3

Therefore, if the area is tripled, then the circumference increases by √3.

How would the area of a circumerancebe affected when the diameter of a circle is doubled or triple?

First of all, there's no such thing as the "area of a circumference". The distancearound the circle is called the "circumference", and the area of the circle is calledthe "area of the circle".-- When the diameter of the circle is doubled, the circumference is doubledand the area is multiplied by 4.-- When the diameter of the circle is tripled, the circumference is tripledand the area is multiplied by 9.-- When the diameter of the circle is multiplied by N, the circumference ismultiplied by N and the area is multiplied by N2 .


When the radius of a circleis tripled what happens to the circumference and the area of the circle?

Circumference(C) = 2πr C is directly proportional to r. If radius is tripled then circumference becomes three times of the initial. Since the radius is tripled so the new radius is 3r. New circumference(C') = 2π(3r) = 3 x (2πr) = 3 x C Area = πr2 A is directly proportional to r2. If radius is tripled then area becomes 9{square of 3} times of the initial. New radius is 3r. New Area(A') = π (3r)2 = 9 x π r2 = 9 x A.

Why would the perimeter triple and the area multiply by nine when the radius of a circle is tripled?

Because the perimeter (circumference) is 2*pi*r is proportional to r. The area a = pi * r2 is proportional to r2
