Detailed Solution

Given a wire in the form of a rectangle 18.7 cm long and 14.3 cm wide is reshaped and bent into the form of a circle.
According to the question,
perimeter of the circle = perimeter of the rectangle
2πr=2 l+b  
2πr=2 18.7+14.3  
2× 22 7 ×r=2×33  
r= 2×33×7 22×2  
r= 3×7 2  
r= 21 2  
r=10.5cm  
Therefore, the radius of the circle is 10.5 cm.
Hence, option 4 is correct.
