Question

A rectangle whose sides are 4cm and 3 cm ,inscribed in a circle , then find the area enclosed between circle and rectangle​

Answer 1

A rectangle whose sides are 4cm and 3 cm ,inscribed in a circle.

The area enclosed between circle and rectangle is 7.63cm^2.

• Given that : length and breadth of rectangle 4cm and 3cm, respectively.

• The diameter of the circle in which the rectangle can be inscribed is given by the length of the diagonal of the rectangle.

• Applying Pythagoras theorem, we get the length of the diagonal of the rectangle = 5cm = diameter of the given circle.

• Area enclosed between the circle and rectangle = area of circle - area of rectangle

= π*2.5*2.5 - 4*3

= 7.63cm^2
