  1. Radius of first circle (r₁) = 8 cm,
    Radius of second circle (r₂) = 6 cm
    Let the radius of the third circle = r
    Area of the first circle = πr₁² = π(64) = 64π
    Area of the second circle = πr₂² = π(36) = 36π
    Area of the third circle = πr²
    According to question,
    Area of the third circle = Area of the first circle + Area of the second circle
    ⇒ πr² = 64π + 36π ⇒ πr² = 100π ⇒ r = √100 = 10 cm
    Hence, the radius of the circle, having area equal to the sum of the areas of the two circles, is 10 cm.
