The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the diameter of circle O2 given that circle O1 is congruent to circle O2 and the radius of circle O1 is 6 cm. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand Congruence of Circles**: - Two circles are said to be congruent if they have the same radius. - Therefore, if circle O1 is congruent to circle O2, it means that the radius of circle O1 is equal to the radius of circle O2. 2. **Identify the Radius of Circle O1**: - We are given that the radius of circle O1 (r1) is 6 cm. - Thus, we can write: \[ r_1 = 6 \text{ cm} \] 3. **Determine the Radius of Circle O2**: - Since circle O1 is congruent to circle O2, we can conclude that the radius of circle O2 (r2) is also 6 cm. - Therefore: \[ r_2 = r_1 = 6 \text{ cm} \] 4. **Calculate the Diameter of Circle O2**: - The diameter (d) of a circle is calculated using the formula: \[ d = 2 \times r \] - Substituting the radius of circle O2 into the formula: \[ d_2 = 2 \times r_2 = 2 \times 6 \text{ cm} = 12 \text{ cm} \] 5. **Final Answer**: - The diameter of circle O2 is: \[ \text{Diameter of circle O2} = 12 \text{ cm} \]
