Tick the correct answer in the following and justify your choice: If the perimeter and the area of a circle are numerically equal, then the radius of the circle is

A. 2 units


B. π units


C. 4 units


D. 7 units

Let the radius of the circle be r

Circumference of circle = 2πr


Area of circle = πr2


Given that, the circumference of the circle and the area of the circle are equal.


This implies 2πr = πr2


2 = r


Therefore, the radius of the circle is 2 units


Hence, the correct answer is A
