Area Related to Circles

NCERT Solutions class 10 maths chapter 12 Exercise 12.3

Question 1
Find the area of the shaded region in Fig. 12.19, if PQ = 24 cm, PR = 7 cm and O is the centre of the circle.

NCERT Ex-12.3 class 10
Answer

we know that any triangle drawn from diameter RQ to the circle is 90°

P = 90°

Using Pythagorean theorem,

QR2 = PR2+PQ2

QR2 = 72+242

QR= 25 cm

Hence, the radius of the circle = 25/2 cm

Also, area of the ΔPQR = 1/2 × PR × PQ

=1/2 × 7 × 24 cm2

= 84 cm2

Now, the area of the semicircle = (πR2)/2

= ((22/7)×(25/2)×(25/2))/2 cm2

= 13750/56 cm2 = 245.54 cm2

the area of the shaded region = 245.54 cm2-84 cm2

= 161.54 cm2

Question 2
Find the area of the shaded region in Fig. 12.20, if radii of the two concentric circles with centre O are 7 cm and 14 cm respectively and AOC = 40°

NCERT Ex-12.3 class 10
.
Answer

Given,

Angle made by sector = 40°,

the inner Radius = r = 7 cm, and

the outer Radius = R = 14 cm

We know,

Area of the sector = (θ/360°)×πr2

So, Area of OAC = (40°/360°)×πr2 cm2

= 68.44 cm2

Area of the sector OBD = (40°/360°)×πr2 cm2

= (1/9)×(22/7)×72 = 17.11 cm2

Now, area of the shaded region ABDC = Area of OAC – Area of the OBD

= 68.44 cm2 – 17.11 cm2 = 51.33 cm2

Question 3
Find the area of the shaded region in Fig. 12.21, if ABCD is a square of side 14 cm and APD and BPC are semicircles

NCERT Ex-12.3 class 10
.
Answer

Side of the square ABCD = 14 cm

So, Area of square= a2

= 14×14 cm2 = 196 cm2

here the side of the square = diameter of the circle = 14 cm

∴ Radius of the semicircle = 7 cm

area of the semicircle = (πR2)/2

= (22/7×7×7)/2 cm2 =

= 77 cm2

∴ Area of two semicircles = 2×77 cm2 = 154 cm2

area of the shaded region = Area of the Square – Area of two semicircles

= 196 cm2 -154 cm2

= 42 cm2

Question 4
Find the area of the shaded region in Fig. 12.22, where a circular arc of radius 6 cm has been drawn with vertex O of an equilateral triangle OAB of side 12 cm as centre

NCERT Ex-12.3 class 10
.
Answer

It is given that OAB is an equilateral triangle having each angle as 60°

Area of the sector is common in both.

Radius of the circle = 6 cm.

Side of the triangle = 12 cm.

Area of the equilateral triangle = (√3/4) (OA)2= (√3/4×122 = 36√3 cm2

Area of the sector making angle 60° = (60°/360°) ×πr2 cm2

= (1/6)×(22/7)× 62 cm2 = 132/7 cm2

Area of the circle = πR2 = (22/7)×62 = 792/7 cm2

tota Area of the shaded region = Area of the equilateral triangle + Area of the circle – Area of the sector

= 36√3 cm2 +792/7 cm2-132/7 cm2

= (36√3+660/7) cm2

Question 5
From each corner 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. 12.23. Find the area of the remaining portion of the square.

Solution:

Side of the square = 4 cm

Radius of the quadrant = 1 cm

Area of the quadrant = (60°/360°) x πR2 cm2 = (22/7)×(12)/4 = 11/14 cm2

∴So Total area of the 4 quadrants = 4 ×(11/14) cm2 = 22/7 cm2

Area of square = (side)2= 42 = 16 cm2

Area of the circle = πR2 cm2 = (22/7×12) = 22/7 cm2

Area of the shaded region = Area of square – (Area of the all quadrants + Area of the circle)

= 16 cm2-(22/7) cm2+(22/7) cm2

= 68/7 cm2

Question 6
In a circular table cover of radius 32 cm, a design is formed leaving an equilateral triangle ABC in the middle as shown in Fig. 12.24. Find the area of the design.

NCERT Ex-12.3 class 10
Answer
NCERT Ex-12.3 class 10

Radius of the circle = 32 cm

Draw a median AD of the triangle

∴ AO = (2/3) AD

⇒ (2/3)AD = 32 cm

⇒ AD = 48 cm

In ΔADB,

By Pythagoras theorem,

AB2 = AD2 +BD2

⇒ AB2 = 482+(AB/2)2

⇒ AB2 = 2304+AB2/4

⇒ 3/4 (AB2)= 2304

⇒ AB2 = 3072

⇒ AB= 32√3 cm

Area of ΔADB = √3/4 ×(32√3)2 cm2 = 768√3 cm2

Area of circle = πR2 = (22/7)×32×32 = 22528/7 cm2

Area of the design = Area of circle – Area of ΔADB

= (22528/7 – 768√3) cm2

Question 7
In Fig. 12.25, ABCD is a square of side 14 cm. With centres A, B, C and D, four circles are drawn such that each circle touch externally two of the remaining three circles. Find the area of the shaded region.

NCERT Ex-12.3 class 10
.
Answer

Side of square = 14 cm

∴ Radius of the circles = 14/2 cm = 7 cm

Area of the square ABCD = 142 = 196 cm2

Area of the quadrant of one circle = (πR2)/4 cm2 = (22/7) ×72/4 cm2

= 77/2 cm2

Total area of the quadrant = 4×77/2 cm2 = 154cm2

Area of the shaded region = Area of the square ABCD – Area of the quadrant

= 196 cm2 – 154 cm2

= 42 cm2

Question 8
Fig. 12.26 depicts a racing track whose left and right ends are semicircular

The distance between the two inner parallel line segments is 60 m and they are each 106 m long. If the track is 10 m wide, find:

(i) the distance around the track along its inner edge

(ii) the area of the track.

NCERT Ex-12.3 class 10
Answer
NCERT Ex-12.3 class 10

Width of the track = 10 m

Length of tracks = 106 m

DE = CF = 60 m

Radius of inner semicircle, r = OD = O’C

= 60/2 m = 30 m

Radius of outer semicircle, R = OA = O’B

= 30+10 m = 40 m

Also, AB = CD = EF = GH = 106 m

Distance around the track along its inner edge = CD+EF+2×(Circumference of inner semicircle)

= 106+106+(2×πr) m = 212+(2×22/7×30) m

= 212+1320/7 m = 2804/7 m

Area of the track = Area of ABCD + Area EFGH + 2 × (area of outer semicircle) – 2 × (area of inner semicircle)

= (AB×CD)+(EF×GH)+2×(πr2/2) -2×(πR2/2) m2

= (106×10)+(106×10)+2×π/2(r2-R2) m2

= 2120+22/7×70×10 m2

= 4320 m2

Question 9
In Fig. 12.27, AB and CD are two diameters of a circle (with centre O) perpendicular to each other and OD is the diameter of the smaller circle. If OA = 7 cm, find the area of the shaded region.

NCERT Ex-12.3 class 10
.
Answer

Radius of larger circle, R = 7 cm

Radius of smaller circle, r = 7/2 cm

Height of ΔBCA = OC = 7 cm

AB = 14 cm

Area of ΔBCA = 1/2 × AB × OC = (1/2) × 7 × 14 = 49 cm2

Area of larger circle = πR2 = (22/7)×72 = 154 cm2

Area of larger semi-circle = 154/2 cm2 = 77 cm2

Area of smaller circle = πr2 = (22/7)×(7/2)×(7/2) = 77/2 cm2

area of segment BC and AC
area of semi-circle - Area of ΔABC =77 - 49 =28 cm2

Area of the shaded region = Area of larger semi-circle + area of segment BC and AC

Area of the shaded region = (77/2)+ 28 cm2

= 133/2 cm2 = 66.5 cm2

Question 10
The area of an equilateral triangle ABC is 17320.5 cm2. With each vertex of the triangle as centre, a circle is drawn with radius equal to half the length of the side of the triangle (see Fig. 12.28). Find the area of the shaded region. (Use π = 3.14 and √3 = 1.73205)

NCERT Ex-12.3 class 10
.
Answer

Area of ΔABC = 17320.5 cm2

⇒ √3/4 ×(side)2 = 17320.5

⇒ (side)2 =17320.5×4/1.73205

⇒ (side)2 = 4×104

⇒ side = 200 cm

ABC is an equilateral triangle.

∴ So, ∠ A = ∠ B = ∠ C = 60°
AB=a=200cm

Radius of the circles = 200/2 cm = 100 cm

Area of the sector of 1st = (60°/360°)×π r2 cm2

= 1/6×3.14×(100)2 cm2

= 15700/3cm2

Area of 3 sectors = 3×15700/3 = 15700 cm2

Thus, area of the shaded region = Area of equilateral triangle ABC – Area of 3 sectors

= 17320.5-15700 cm2 = 1620.5 cm2

Question 11
On a square handkerchief, nine circular designs each of radius 7 cm are made (see Fig. 12.29). Find the area of the remaining portion of the handkerchief.

NCERT Ex-12.3 class 10
.
Answer

Radius of the each circular = 7 cm

There are three circles in one side of square handkerchief.

∴ Length of the square = 3 × diameter of circle = 3 × 14 = 42 cm

Area of the square = 42×42 cm2 = 1764 cm2

Area of the circle = π r2 = (22/7)×7×7 = 154 cm2

Total area of the design = 9 × 154 = 1386 cm2

Area of the remaining portion of the handkerchief = Area of the square – Total area of the design = 1764 – 1386 = 378 cm2

Question 12
In Fig. 12.30, OACB is a quadrant of a circle with centre O and radius 3.5 cm. If OD = 2 cm, find the area of the

(i) quadrant OACB,

(ii) shaded region.

NCERT Ex-12.3 class 10
.
Answer

here radius of the quadrant = 3.5 cm = 7/2 cm

(i) Area of quadrant OACB = (πR2)/4 cm2

= (22/7)×(7/2)×(7/2)/4 cm2

= 77/8 cm2

(ii) Area of triangle BOD = (½)×(7/2)×2 cm2

= 7/2 cm2

Area of shaded region = Area of quadrant – Area of triangle BOD

= (77/8)-(7/2) cm2 = 49/8 cm2

= 6.125 cm2

Question 13
In Fig. 12.31, a square OABC is inscribed in a quadrant OPBQ. If OA = 20 cm, find the area of the shaded region. (Use π = 3.14)

NCERT Ex-12.3 class 10
.
Answer

here length of square =20 cm

Radius of the quadrant = OB

OAB is right angled triangle

By Pythagoras theorem in ΔOAB,

OB2 = AB2+OA2

⇒ OB2 = 202 +202

⇒ OB2 = 400+400

⇒ OB2 = 800

⇒ OB= 20√2 cm

Area of the quadrant = (πR2)/4 cm2 = (3.14/4)×(20√2)2 cm2 = 628cm2

Area of the square = 20×20 = 400 cm2

Area of the shaded region = Area of the quadrant – Area of the square

= 628-400 cm2 = 228cm2

Question 14
AB and CD are respectively arcs of two concentric circles of radii 21 cm and 7 cm and centre O (see Fig. 12.32). If ∠AOB = 30°, find the area of the shaded region.

NCERT Ex-12.3 class 10
.
Answer

here ∠AOB = 30°

Radius of the larger circle, R = 21 cm

Radius of the smaller circle, r = 7 cm

Area of the larger sector = (30°/360°)×πR2 cm2

= (1/12)×(22/7)×212 cm2

= 231/2cm2

Area of the smaller circle = (30°/360°)×πr2 cm2

= 1/12×22/7×72 cm2

=77/6 cm2

Area of the shaded region = (231/2) – (77/6) cm2

= 616/6 cm2 = 308/3cm2

Question 15
In Fig. 12.33, ABC is a quadrant of a circle of radius 14 cm and a semicircle is drawn with BC as diameter. Find the area of the shaded region.

NCERT Ex-12.3 class 10
.
Answer

Radius of the quadrant = 14 cm

AB = AC = 14 cm

By Pythagoras theorem in ΔABC,

BC2 = AB2 +AC2

⇒ BC2 = 142 +142

⇒ BC = 14√2 cm

Radius of semicircle = 14√2/2 cm = 7√2 cm

Area of ΔABC =( ½)×14×14 = 98 cm2

Area of quadrant = (¼)×(22/7)×(14×14) = 154 cm2

Area of the semicircle = (½)×(22/7)×7√2×7√2 = 154 cm2

Area of the shaded region =Area of the semicircle + Area of ΔABC – Area of quadrant

= 154 +98-154 cm2 = 98cm2

Question 16
Calculate the area of the designed region in Fig. 12.34 common between the two quadrants of circles of radius 8 cm each.

NCERT Ex-12.3 class 10
.
Answer

AB = BC = CD = AD = 8 cm

Area of ΔABC = Area of ΔADC = (1/2) × 8 × 8 = 32 cm2

Area of quadrant AECB = Area of quadrant AFCD = (1/2)×22/7×82

= 352/7 cm2

Area of shaded region = (Area of quadrant AECB – Area of ΔABC) = (Area of quadrant AFCD – Area of ΔADC)

= (352/7 -32)+(352/7- 32) cm2

= 2×(352/7-32) cm2

= 256/7 cm2
