Answer:
The areas of the three disjoint segments will be 22.26 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
Given radius of the circumcircle = 3 cm
=> area of the circumcircle = πr² = 3.14 x 9 = 28.26 cm²
In a circumcircle of a right angled triangle, the hypotenuse is the diameter of the circle,
radius = 3 cm
=> diameter = hypotenuse = 2 x 3 = 6 cm
Altitude drawn to the hypotenuse = 2 cm
So area of the triangle = 1/2 x base x height
= 1/2 x 6 x 2
= 6 cm
Hence
Area of the disjoint segments = Area of circumcircle - area of triangle
= 28.26 - 6
= 22.26 cm²
Hence the areas of the three disjoint segments will be 22.26 cm²
