In the given figure, ABCD is a trapezium with AB II DC, AB = 18 cm, DC = 32 cm and the distance between AB and AC is 14 cm. If arcs of equal radii 7 cm taking A, B, C and D as centres, have been drawn, then find the area of the shaded region.

i ) In Trapezium ABCD ,

AB // DC ,

AB = 18cm , DC = 32 cm,

Distance between two parallel

lines = ( h ) = 14cm

Area of ABCD = [ ( AB+DC )×h ]/2

= [( 18 + 32 )×14 ]/2

= 40 × 7

= 280 cm² ----( 1 )

ii ) In ABCD Trapezium ,

AB // DC ,

<A + <D = 180° ----( 2 )

Similarly ,

<B + <D = 180° ----( 3 )

Adding

<A + <B + <C + <D = 360° --( 4 )

Arranging 4 sectors with equal radii

become a circle [ see the figure ]

Now ,

Area of the circle = πr²

= ( 22/7 ) × 7²

= 22 × 7

= 154 cm² --- ( 4 )

Therefore ,

Area of the shaded region= ( 1 ) - ( 2 )

= 280 cm² - 154 cm²

= 126 cm²
