From a square metal sheet of side 28cm, a circular sheet is cut off.
The radius of the largest possible circular sheet than can be cut & the area of the remaining sheet.
We have,
A square metal sheet of side = 28cm
We know that formula of the square: (side × side) [sq.units]
→ Area = (28 × 28)cm²
→ Area = 784cm²
Hence, the area of square is 784cm².

For largest circle to be inscribed to a square:
⇒ Side of square = diameter of circle
⇒ 28cm = 2 × r
⇒ r =
⇒ r = 14cm.

Now,
Thus,
The area of remaining sheet is 168cm².
Side of square = 28 cm
So the radius of the largest possible circle = 14 cm
Area of remaining sheet = area of square - area of circle
Area of remaining sheet = 28 × 28 - 22/7 × 14 × 14
Area of remaining sheet = 784 - 616
Area of remaining sheet = 168 sq cm
