In the given figure, OACB is a quadrant of a circle with centre O and radius 3.5 cm. If OD = 2 cm, find the area of the shaded region.
In the figure alongside, OACB is a quadrant of a circle. The radius OA = 3.5 cm and OD = 2 cm. Calculate the area of the shaded portion (Take Π = 22/7)
Solution 1
Since OACB is a quadrant, it will subtend 90° angle at O.
Area of quadrant OACB
`= 90^@/360^@ xx pir^2`
`=1/4 xx 22/7 xx (3.5)^2 = 1/4 xx 22/7 xx(7/2)^2`
`= (11xx7xx7)/(2xx 7xx 2xx2) = 77/8 cm^2`
Area of ΔOBD
`= 1/2 xx OB xx OD`
`= 1/2 xx 3.5 xx 2`
`= 1/2 xx 7/2 xx 2`
`= 7/2 "cm"^2`
Area of the shaded region
= Area of quadrant OACB − Area of ΔOBD
`= 77/8 - 7/2`
`= (77 - 28)/8`
= `49/8 "cm"^2`
Solution 2
Area of the quadrant OACB = `1/4 xx pir^2`
`= 1/4 xx 22/7 xx 3.5 xx 3.5`
`= 9.625 cm^2`
Area of the triangle OAD = `1/2 xx base xx height = 1/2 cc 3.5 xx 2 = 3.5 cm^2`
Shaded Area = Area of quadrant OACB – area of triangle OAD
` = 9.625 - 3.5 cm^2`
`= 6.125 cm^2`
