Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that-
Angle P = 60° ( Equilateral triangle)
Angle Q = 60° ( Equilateral triangle)
Angle R = 60° ( Equilateral triangle)
Radius = 4cm
such that,
QD = 4cm ; DP = 4cm ; PF = 4cm ; FR = 4cm ; ER = 4cm ; QE = 4cm
So,
QD+DP = 4cm + 4cm => QP = 8cm
PF + FR = 4cm+ 4cm => PR = 8cm
QE + ER = 4cm + 4cm => QR = 8cm
We know that "Area of sector of Angle" = Q/360° × Πr^2
Therefore, Area Of Sectors of QDE, REF, PFD = 60°/360° × 3.14× (4)^2 × (3) = 25.12cm^2
We know that Area of Equilateral triangle PQR = √3/4(a)^2
√3/4(8cm)^2 = 27.71(Approx)
Area of shaded Region = (Area of equilateral triangle PQR) - (Area of Sectors of QDE, REF, PFD)
=> (27.71 - 25.12)cm^2
=> 2.59cm^2
Therefore, The area of the shaded region in an equilateral triangle is 2.59cm^2
