Question

A square ABCD is inscribed in a circle of radius 4 cm. Find the area of the minor
segment cut off by the chord AB.​

Answer 1

Answer:

When you ask, "What is the minor segment cut off by the chord AB", I will assume

you meant its area.

sketch the square in the circle.

draw its two diagonals

area of the sector with arc AB = (1/4)π(4^2) = 4π square units

area of the right-angled triangle with AB as its hypotenuse

= (1/2)(4)(4) = 8 square units

So area of segment formed = 4π - 8 square units= appr .....

or , even easier way:

Area of circle = 16π

area of square: let each side of the square be x

x^2 + x^2 = 8^2

x^2 = 32

area = 32

area of one of the 4 segments = (1/4)(16π-32) = 4π - 8
