area realated to circle
Answers
Question
From each centre of a square of side 4 cm a quadrant of a circle of radius 1 cm is cut and also a circle of diameter 2 cm is cut as shown in fig. Find the area of remaining portion of the square.
Answer
16 - 2π cm² or 9.72 cm² (approx)
Explanation
Since there are four quadrants of same radius (1 cm), they together will form a complete circle with radius 1 cm
And, the circle in the centre has a diameter 2 cm.
→ radius of circle in the centre = 1 cm.
So, area of remaining portion = area of square - area of 4 quadrants - area of circle in the centre
Area of square = side² = 4² = 16 cm²
area of 4 quadrants = area of complete circle formed by them = πr² = π(1)² = π cm²
Area of circle in the centre = πr² = π(1)² = π cm²
So, area of remaining portion = 16 - π - π
= 16 - 2π cm²
Now, taking π as 3.14, we get
16 - 2(3.14) cm²
= 16 - 6.28 cm²
= 9.72 cm²
