Question

Find the area of shaded region from the figure given along. It consists of a trapezium ABCD and a semicircle with diameter CD

Answer 1

Answer:

Given-

ABCD is a trapezium. AB∥DC and AB=18 cm, DC=32 cm.

There are 4 arcs centring the vertices A,B,C,D with radius r=7 cm.

To find out - area of shaded region

Solution-

Area of trapezium =

1

× sum of the parallel sides × distance between the parallel sides.=

.

Let us take the angles of the trapezium as a at A,b at B,c at C and d at D.

Now the given arcs form 4 sectors.

Together they form a circle of radius r=7 cm as a+b+c+d=360

.

∴ The area of the sectors=area of circle with radius (r=7cm) =π×r

.

∴ Area of shaded region = area of trapezium − area of circle

=(350−154)=196 cm
