Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Length of rectangle = 8 cm
Breadth of rectangle = 6 cm
Area of rectangle = length × breadth
= 8 × 6 = 48 cm2
Consider
ABC,
By Pythagoras theorem,
AC2 = AB2 + BC2
= 82 + 62 = 64 + 36 = 100
AC = √100 = 10 cm
⇒ Diameter of circle = 10 cm
Thus, radius of circle =
= 5 cm
Let the radius of circle be r = 5 cm
Then, Area of circle = πr2
= 22/7 × 5 × 5
= 78.57 cm2
Area of shaded region = Area of circle – Area of rectangle
= 78.57 - 48
= 30.57 cm2
Hence, the area of shaded region is 30.57 cm2
