In the given figure, AP=12 cm and PB=16 cm. Taking the value of pi as 3.14, the area of the shaded region is :
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
first by Pythagoras
we can find AB
( because APB is a right angled triangle
because <APB is 90° because angle made from diameter of circle is always 90° .)
(AP)^2 + ( PB )^2 = (AB)^2
now put all values
(12)^2 + (16)^2 = (AB)^2
144 + 256 = (AB)^2
400 = (AB)^2
√400 = AB
20cm = AB
AB is diameter so AB/2 is radius .
AB/2 = 20/2 = 10cm
so now find area of both figures
area of semi - circle = Πr^2 /2 .....(Π is pie )
area of semi - circle = 3.14 * 10^2 /2
area of semi - circle = 314/2 = 107cm^2
now area of triangle = 1/2 * base * height
now put values
area of triangle = 1/2 * 12 * 16
area = 12 * 8
area = 96cm^2
now subtract the area of triangle from area of semi - circle to get the area of shaded region
107 cm^2 - 96cm^2 = 11cm^2
=532
In Right triangle ABP,
=
×12×16
96
=
Radius of semi circle = = 10 cm
Now, area of shaded region = 157 - 96 = 61
