Question on: JAMB Mathematics - 1992

The diagram is a circle with centre O. Find the area of the shaded portion
A
9(\(\pi - 2) cm^2\)
B
18\(\pi cm^2\)
C
9\(\pi cm^2\)
D
36\(\pi cm^2\)
Ask EduPadi AI for a detailed answer
Correct Option: A
Area of the quadrant = \(\frac{1}{4} \pi r^2 = \frac{1}{4} \pi (6)^2\)

= \(\frac{36 \pi}{4} = 9 \pi \)

Area of the triangle = \(\frac{1}{2} \times 6 = 18 \times \sin 90^o = 18\)

Area of shaded portion =(9 \(\pi \) - 18)cm^2\) =

9(\(\pi - 2)cm^2\).
