Radius of smaller is x
\n" ); document.write( "of larger is x+5
\n" ); document.write( "area of smaller/inner is pi*x^2
\n" ); document.write( "area of larger is pi(x^2+10x+25)
\n" ); document.write( "smaller + 228 cm^2=larger
\n" ); document.write( "so pi(x^2)+228=pix^2+pi(10x+pi*25)
\n" ); document.write( "228=pi(10x+25)
\n" ); document.write( "72.57=10x+25
\n" ); document.write( "10x=47.57
\n" ); document.write( "x=4.76 cm radius smaller circle with area 71.18 cm^2 ANSWER
\n" ); document.write( "x+5=9.76 cm radius larger circle with area 299.26 cm^2, 228 cm^2 larger given rounding.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
