Radius of the circle = 14 cm


ΔAOB is isosceles as two sides are equal.


∴ ∠A = ∠B


Sum of all angles of triangle = 180°


∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°


⇒ 2 ∠A = 180° - 60°


⇒ ∠A = 120°/2


⇒ ∠A = 60°


Triangle is equilateral as ∠A = ∠B = ∠C = 60°


∴ OA = OB = AB = 14 cm


Area of equilateral ΔAOB = √3/4 × (OA)2 = √3/4 × 142


= (196√3)/4 cm2 = 84.87 cm2



Angle subtend at the centre by minor segment = 60°


Area of Minor sector making angle 60° = (60°/360°) × π r2 cm2


= (1/6) × 142 π cm2 = 196/6 π cm2


= (196/6) × 3.14 cm2 = 102.57 cm2



Area of the minor segment = Area of Minor sector - Area of equilateral ΔAOB


= 102.75 cm2 - 84.87 cm2 = 17.87 cm2




Angle made by Major sector = 360° - 60° = 300°


Area of the sector making angle 300° = (300°/360°) × π r2 cm2


= (5/6) × 142 π cm2 = 980/6 π cm2


= (980/6) × 3.14 cm2 = 512.86 cm2



Area of major segment = Area of Minor sector + Area of equilateral ΔAOB


= 512.86 cm2 + 84.87 cm2 = 597.73 cm2

let the A and B be x
and also angle c be y
a/q
or x+x=180
or 2x=180
or x =180/2
or x=90
therefore A=90/2 =45 and B=90/2=45
and C = 180-90= 90
