XYZ is a circle enter o and a radius 7cm. Find the area of the shaded region. θ = 45 x 2 = 90
A
84cm2
B
77cm2
C
38cm2
D
14cm2
Ask EduPadi AI for a detailed answer
Correct Option: D
θ = 45 x 2 (∠ at center twice ∠ at θ)
θ = 90
Area of sector = θ/360 x πr2
= 90/360 x 22/7 x 7 x 7
= 77/2cm2
Area of triangle = 1/2 ab sin θ
= 1/2 x 7 x 7 sin 90
= 1/2 x 7 x 7 x 1
= 49/2
Area of shaded region = 77/2 - 49/2

2

= 28/2
= 14cm2
