What will be the area of the largest square that can be cut out of a circle of radius 10 cm?

पर्याय

  • 100 cm2

  • 200 cm2

  • 300 cm2

  • 400 cm2

MCQ

उत्तर

200 cm

Explanation:

Given, radius of circle = 10 cm

The largest square that can be cut out of a circle of radius 10 cm will have its diagonal equal to the diameter of the circle.

Let the side of a square be x

Then, area of the square = x × x = x2 cm2  ......[∵ Area of square = (side)2]


Now, In right-angled ΔDAB,

(BD)2 = (AD)2 + (AB)2  ......[By Pythagoras theorem]

∵ (20)2 = x2 + x2  ......[∵ Diagonal and diameter = 2 × radius = 2 × 10 = 20 cm]

⇒ 2x2 = 400

⇒ x2 = 200

∴ (Side)2 = 200

Hence, the area of the largest square is 200 cm2.
