Answer - 11 : -

Question - 12 : -

In Fig. 12.30, OACBis a quadrant of a circle with centre O and radius 3.5 cm. If OD = 2 cm,

Answer - 12 : -

 find the area of the

(i) quadrant OACB,           (ii) shaded region.

Question - 13 : -

In Fig. 12.31, asquare OABC is inscribed in a quadrant OPBQ. If OA = 20 cm, find the area ofthe shaded region. (Use π = 3.14)

Answer - 13 : -

Solution:

Side of square = OA = AB = 20 cm

Radius of the quadrant = OB

OAB is right angled triangle

By Pythagoras theorem in ΔOAB,

OB= AB2+OA2

OB= 20+202

OB= 400+400

OB= 800

OB= 20√2 cm

Area of the quadrant = (πR2)/4 cm=(3.14/4)×(20√2)cm= 628cm2

Area of the square = 20×20 = 400 cm2

Area of the shaded region = Area of thequadrant – Area of the square

= 628-400 cm= 228cm2

Question - 14 : - AB and CD are respectively arcs of twoconcentric circles of radii 21 cm and 7 cm and centre O (see Fig. 12.32). If AOB = 30°, 

Answer - 14 : -

find the area of the shaded region.

Solution:

Radius of the larger circle, R = 21 cm

Radius of the smaller circle, r = 7 cm

Angle made by sectors of both concentriccircles = 30°

Area of the larger sector = (30°/360°)×πRcm2

= (1/12)×(22/7)×21cm2

= 231/2cm2

Area of the smaller circle = (30°/360°)×πrcm2

= 1/12×22/7×7cm2

=77/6 cm2

Area of the shaded region = (231/2) – (77/6)cm2

= 616/6 cm2 = 308/3cm2

Question - 15 : -
