Question

a chord of a circle of radius 15 CM subtends an angle of 60 degree at the centre find the areas of the corresponding minor and major segment of a circle

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of sector = 60/306 * 3.14 * 15 *15

= 117.75 cm2

Area of triangle = a2√3/4

= 225 * 1.73/4

=97.3125

Are of minor segment = area of sector - area of triangle

= 20.4374 CM 2

Area of major segment = area of circle - area of minor segment

= 706.5-20.4374

=686.0625 cm2
