Question

Find the area of the shaded region:

Sum

Solution

Let radius of smaller circle be r and bigger circle be R

From the figure r = `7/2` cm and R = `7/2 + 7 = 21/2`cm

∴ Area of shaded region = Area of bigger circle – Area of smaller circle

= πR2 – πr2

= π(R2 – r2)

= `π(21/2 xx 21/2 - 7/2 xx 7/2)`

= `π(441/4 - 49/4)`

= `22/7 xx 392/4`

= 308 cm2

Hence, the area of shaded region is 308 cm2.
