$\text{OD}\bot\text{BC}$
Because $\triangle\text{ABC}$ is equilateral, $\angle\text{A}=\angle\text{B}=\angle\text{C}=60^\circ.$
Thus, we have:
$\angle\text{OBD}=30^\circ$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{OD}}{\text{OB}}=\sin30^\circ$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{OD}}{\text{OB}}=\frac{1}{2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{OD}=\Big(\frac{1}{2}\times4\Big)\text{cm}[\because\text{OB}=\text{redius}]$
$\Rightarrow\text{OD}=2\text{cm}$
$\text{BD}^2=\big(\text{OB}^2-\text{OD}^2\big)$ [By Pythagoras' theorem]
$\Rightarrow\text{BD}^2=\big(4^2-2^2\big)\text{cm}^2$
$\Rightarrow\text{BD}^2=(16-4)\text{cm}^2$
$\Rightarrow\text{BD}^2=12\text{cm}^2$
$\Rightarrow\text{BD}=2\sqrt{3}\text{cm}$
Also,
$\text{BC}=2\times\text{BD}$
$=\big(2\times2\sqrt{3}\big)\text{cm}$
$\therefore$ Area of the shaded region = (Area of the circle) - (Area of $\triangle$ ABC)
$=\Big|(3.14\times4\times4)-\Big(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}\times4\sqrt{3}\times4\sqrt{3}\Big)\Big|\text{cm}^2$
$=\big|50.24-(12\times1.73)\big|\text{cm}^2$
$=(50.24-20.76)\text{cm}^2$
$=29.48\text{cm}^2$ View full question & answer→Question 22 Marks
The difference between the circumference and radius of a circle is 37cm. Using $\pi=\frac{22}{7},$ find the circumference of the circle.
AnswerLet r be the radius of a circle.
Then, circumference of a circle $=2\pi\text{r}$
We have,
Circumference - Radius = 37cm
$\Rightarrow2\pi\text{r}-\text{r}=37$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}(2\pi-1)=37$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}\Big(\frac{44}{7}-1\Big)=37$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}\Big(\frac{37}{7}\Big)=37$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}=\frac{37\times7}{37}$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}=7\text{cm}$
$\therefore$ Circumference of the circle $=2\pi\text{r}=\Big(2\times\frac{22}{7}\times7\Big)\text{cm}=44\text{cm}$

The radii of two circles are 19cm and 9cm Find the radius of the circle which has circumference equal to the sum of the circumferences of the two circles.
AnswerLet R be the radius of the circle.
Then, we have
Circumference of a circle of radius R = Circumference of a circle of radius 19cm + Circumference of a circle of radius 9cm
$\Rightarrow2\pi\text{R}=2\pi\times19+2\pi\times9$
⇒ R = 19 + 9

The areas of two circles are in th ratio $4 : 9$. What is the ratio between their circumferences?
AnswerLet$ R_1$ and $R_2$_ be the radii of two circles respectively.
Then, we have $\frac{\pi\text{R}^2_1}{\pi\text{R}^2_2}=\frac49$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{R}^2_1}{\text{R}^2_2}=\frac49$
$\Rightarrow\Big(\frac{\text{R}_1}{\text{R}_2}\Big)^2=\Big(\frac23\Big)^2$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{R}_1}{\text{R}_2}=\frac23$
Now, $\frac{2\pi\text{R}_1}{2\pi\text{R}_1}=\frac{\text{R}_1}{\text{R}_2}=\frac23$
$\therefore$ Ratio of their circumference is 2 : 3.

$2\pi\text{r}=88\text{cm}\Rightarrow\text{r}=\frac{88\times7}{2\times22}=14\text{cm}$
Area of cirde $=\pi\text{r}^2=\Big(\frac{22}{7}\times14\times14\Big)\text{cm}^2=616\text{cm}^2$

A Wire when bent in the form of an equilateral triangle encloses an area of $121\sqrt{3}\text{cm}^2.$ If the same wire is bent into the form of a circle, what will be the area of the circle? $\Big[\text{Take }\pi=\frac{22}{7}.\Big]$
AnswerLet a cm be the side of the equilateral triangle.
Now,
Area of the equilateral triangle $=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}\text{a}^2$
We have
$\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}\text{a}^2=121\sqrt{3}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{a}^2}{4}=121$
$\Rightarrow\text{a}^2=484$
$\Rightarrow\text{a}=22$
Perimeter of the triangle = Circumference of the circle
Perimeter of the triangle = (22 + 22 + 22)cm
= 66cm
Now, let r cm be the radius of the circle.
We know:
Circumference of the circle $=2\pi\text{r}$
$\Rightarrow2\times\frac{22}{7}\times\text{r}=66$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}=\Big(66\times\frac{7}{44}\Big)\text{cm}$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}=\frac{21}{2}\text{cm}$
Also,
Area of the circle $=\pi\text{r}^2$
$=\Big(\frac{22}{7}\times\frac{21}{2}\times\frac{21}{2}\Big)\text{cm}^2$
$=\frac{693}{2}\text{cm}^2$
$=346.5\text{cm}^2$

The circumference of a circle is 8cm. Find the area of the sictor whose central angle is 72°.
AnswerLet r be the radius of a circle.
Circumference of a circle = 8cm
Central angle $=\theta=72^\circ$
Now,
Circmference of a circle $=2\pi\text{r}$
$\Rightarrow88=2\pi\text{r}$
$\Rightarrow88=2\times\frac{22}{7}\times\text{r}$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}=\frac{88\times7}{2\times22}$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}=14\text{cm}$
$\therefore$ Area of the sector $=\frac{\pi\text{r}^2\theta}{360}=\Big(\frac{22}{7}\times14\times14\times\frac{72}{360}\Big)\text{cm}^2$
$=123.2\text{cm}^2$

A sector of 56°, cut out from a circle, contains $17.6 cm^2$. Find the radius of the circle.
Answer$\theta=56^\circ$ and let radius is r cm
Area of sector $=\frac{\pi\text{r}^2\theta}{360^\circ}=17.6\text{cm}^2$
$\Rightarrow\frac{22}{7}\times\text{r}^2\times\frac{56^\circ}{360^\circ}=17.6$
$\text{r}^2=\Big(\frac{17.6\times360\times7}{22\times56}\Big)\text{cm}^2$
$\text{r}^2=36\text{cm}^2\Rightarrow\text{r}=\sqrt{36}\text{cm}=6\text{cm}$
Hence radius $= 6cm.$

The circumference of a circle is 22cm. Find its area. $\Big[\text{Take }\pi=\frac{22}{7}\Big]$
AnswerLet rem be the radius of the circle.
Now,
Circumference of the circle:
$2\pi\text{r}=22$
$\Rightarrow2\times\frac{22}{7}\times\text{r}=22$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}=\Big(22\times\frac{7}{44}\Big)\text{cm}$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}=\frac{7}{2}$
Also,
Area of the circle $=\pi\text{r}^2$
$=\Big(\frac{22}{7}\times\frac{7}{2}\times\frac{7}{2}\Big)\text{cm}^2$
$=\frac{77}{2}\text{cm}^2$
$=38.5\text{cm}^2$
