The diameter of a circle with centre at point O is 30 cm. A point P lies in the same plane as the circle and OP = 20 cm, then point P lies : 1. on the circumference of the circle 2. inside the circle. 3. outside the circle. 4. nothing can be said

Given, diameter of a circle = 30 cm. As we know that radius is half of the diameter. ⇒ Radius = x diameter= x 30 = 15 cm. The distance from the center O to point P is 20 cm. Since OP = 20 cm is greater than the radius of the circle (15 cm). ∴ Point P lies outside the circle. Hence, option 3 is the correct option.
