Here's ur ans..my dear friend❤❤❤❤
SOLUTION:-
Construction: Draw perpendiculars OE and OF onto AE and CD respectively from the centre O.
In ΔOEB,OE
2+BE2 = OB2
[Using Pythagoras theorem]
OE
2 = OB2- BE2
OE2= 25 - 9
(Perpendicular drawn from centre to a chord bisects the chord, so BE = 3cm)
Therefore, OE = 4cm
Similarly In
ΔOFD,OF2+ FD2 = OD2
OF2 = OD2- FD2
OF2=25−16=9
(Perpendicular drawn from centre to a chord bisects the chord, so FD = 4 cm)
⇒ OF = 3 cm
Here, the figure formed by the points A, B, C and D is a quadrilateral with one pair of sides parallel to each other.
Hence, ABCD is a trapezium.
We have,
Area of trapezium = 1
2
(perpendicular distance between two parallel sides)(sum of the lengths of the parallel sides)
=12x (OE + OF) x (AB + CD)= 12(4+3)(8+6)
= 49 cm2.
