Detailed Solution

Given, the area of a circle 5 cm.
We need to find the changed radius when area is increased 4 times.
Use formula for area of circle and substitute radius R = 5 cm.
Area of the circle = πr²
= π × (5)²
= 25π cm²
Area is increased 4 times, so multiply area by 4 and
4 × 25π = πr²
100 = πr²
100 = r
The radius of the circle is 10 cm.
Hence, the correct option is 1.
