Short Answer Type Questions II [3 Marks]
Question 1.
In figure, ABCD is a square of side 14 cm. Semi-circles are drawn with each
side of square as diameter. Find the area of the shaded region.
Solution:
Area of the square ABCD = 14 x 14 = 196 cm²
Area of semicircle AOB=1/2 x πr²
=1/2×22/7x7x7
Similarly, area of semicircle DOC = 77 cm²
Hence, the area of shaded region (Part W and Part Y) = Area of square -Area
of two semicircles AOB and COD
= 196 – 154 = 42 cm²
Therefore, area of four shaded parts (i.e. X, Y, W, Z) = (2 x 42) cm² = 84 cm²
Question 2.
In figure, are shown two arcs PAQ and PBQ. Arc PAQ is a part of circle with
centre O and radius OP while arc PBQ is a semicircle drawn on PQ as
diameter with centre M. If OP = PQ = 10 cm, show that area of shaded region
is
25(√3- π /6)cm²
Solution:
OP = OQ = 10 cm

PQ = 10 cm
So, ΔOPQ is an equilateral triangle
∠POQ = 60°
Area of segment PAQM = Area of sector OPAQ – Area of ΔOPQ
=60/360 x π x 10 x 10-√3/4 x 10 x 10
=(100π/6-100√3/4)cm²
Area of semicircle =1/2 x π x 5 x 5 = 25/2π cm²
Area of the shaded region =25/2π-(100π/6-100√3/4)=25π/2-50π/3+25√3
=75π-100π/6+25√3=25√3-25π/6
=25(√3-π/6)cm²
Question 3.
In figure, O is the centre of a circle such that diameter AB = 13 cm and AC =
12 cm. BC is joined. Find the area of the shaded region.
Solution:
Here, BC² = AB²-AC²
= 169-144 = 25 BC = 5
Area of shaded region = Area of semicircle – Area of right triangle ABC
=1/2 x πr²-1/2AC x BC
=1/2 x 3.14(13/2)²-1/2 x 12 x 5
=66.33 – 30 = 36.33 cm²
Question 4.
In figure, find the area of the shaded region, enclosed between two concentric
circles of radii 7 cm and 14 cm where∠AOC = 40°.
Solution:
Area of shaded region=360°-θ/360° x π(R²-r²)
=320°/360° x π[(14)²-(7)²]
=8/9 x 22/7(196-49)=8/9 x 22/7 x 147
=1232/3=410.67 cm²
Question 5.

been drawn with vertex O of an equilateral triangle OAB of side 12 cm

Solution:
Area of ΔOAB=√3/4(side)²=√3/4 x (12)²
=36√3=36 x 1.73
=62.28 cm²
area of circle with center O =πr²=3.14 x (6)²
=3.14 x 36 =113.04 cm²
area of sector(OLQP)=πr² x θ/360°=3.14 x 6² x 60°/360°
=3.14 x 36 x 1/6 =18.84 cm²
area of shaded region=area of ΔOAB+area of circle-2 area of sector OLQP
=(62.28+113.04-2 x 18.84)cm²
=137.64cm²
Question 6.
In figure, is a chord AB of a circle, with centre O and radius 10 cm, that
subtends a right angle at the centre of the circle. Find the area of the minor
segment AQBP. Hence, find the area of major segment ALBQA
Solution:
Area of minor segment APBQ=θ/360° x πr²-r²sin45°cos45°
=3.14 x 100/4-100 x 1/√2 x 1/√2
=(78.5-50)cm²=28.5 cm²
Area of major segment ALBQA =πr²-area of minor segment
=3.14 x (10)²-28.5
=(314-28.5)cm²=285.5 cm²

Question 1.
In figure, ABCD is a square of side 14 cm. Semi-circles are drawn with each
side of square as diameter. Find the area of the shaded region.
Expert’s class Ahmedabad
Dhruv Thakar

Solution:
Area of the square ABCD = 14 x 14 = 196 cm²
Area of semicircle AOB=1/2 x πr²
=1/2×22/7x7x7
Similarly, area of semicircle DOC = 77 cm²
Hence, the area of shaded region (Part W and Part Y) = Area of square -Area
of two semicircles AOB and COD
= 196 – 154 = 42 cm²
Therefore, area of four shaded parts (i.e. X, Y, W, Z) = (2 x 42) cm² = 84 cm²
Question 2.
In figure, are shown two arcs PAQ and PBQ. Arc PAQ is a part of circle with
centre O and radius OP while arc PBQ is a semicircle drawn on PQ as
diameter with centre M. If OP = PQ = 10 cm, show that area of shaded region
is
25(√3- π /6)cm²
Solution:
OP = OQ = 10 cm
PQ = 10 cm
So, ΔOPQ is an equilateral triangle
∠POQ = 60°
Area of segment PAQM = Area of sector OPAQ – Area of ΔOPQ
=60/360 x π x 10 x 10-√3/4 x 10 x 10
=(100π/6-100√3/4)cm²
Area of semicircle =1/2 x π x 5 x 5 = 25/2π cm²
Area of the shaded region =25/2π-(100π/6-100√3/4)=25π/2-50π/3+25√3
=75π-100π/6+25√3=25√3-25π/6
=25(√3-π/6)cm²

12 cm. BC is joined. Find the area of the shaded region.
Solution:
Here, BC² = AB²-AC²
= 169-144 = 25 BC = 5
Area of shaded region = Area of semicircle – Area of right triangle ABC
=1/2 x πr²-1/2AC x BC
=1/2 x 3.14(13/2)²-1/2 x 12 x 5
=66.33 – 30 = 36.33 cm²
Question 4.
In figure, find the area of the shaded region, enclosed between two concentric
circles of radii 7 cm and 14 cm where∠AOC = 40°.
Solution:
Area of shaded region=360°-θ/360° x π(R²-r²)
=320°/360° x π[(14)²-(7)²]
=8/9 x 22/7(196-49)=8/9 x 22/7 x 147
=1232/3=410.67 cm²
Question 5.
Find the area of shaded region in figure, where a circle of radius 6 cm has
been drawn with vertex O of an equilateral triangle OAB of side 12 cm
Solution:
Area of ΔOAB=√3/4(side)²=√3/4 x (12)²
=36√3=36 x 1.73
=62.28 cm²
area of circle with center O =πr²=3.14 x (6)²

area of shaded region=area of ΔOAB+area of circle-2 area of sector OLQP
=(62.28+113.04-2 x 18.84)cm²

Question 6.
In figure, is a chord AB of a circle, with centre O and radius 10 cm, that
subtends a right angle at the centre of the circle. Find the area of the minor
segment AQBP. Hence, find the area of major segment ALBQA
Solution:
Area of minor segment APBQ=θ/360° x πr²-r²sin45°cos45°
=3.14 x 100/4-100 x 1/√2 x 1/√2
=(78.5-50)cm²=28.5 cm²
Area of major segment ALBQA =πr²-area of minor segment
=3.14 x (10)²-28.5

  • 1. Expert’s class Ahmedabad Dhruv Thakar 8320495706 1 Important Questions for Class 10 Maths Chapter 12 Areas Related to Circles With Solutions 2016 Short Answer Type Questions II [3 Marks] Question 1. In figure, ABCD is a square of side 14 cm. Semi-circles are drawn with each side of square as diameter. Find the area of the shaded region. Solution: Area of the square ABCD = 14 x 14 = 196 cm² Area of semicircle AOB=1/2 x πr² =1/2×22/7x7x7 Similarly, area of semicircle DOC = 77 cm² Hence, the area of shaded region (Part W and Part Y) = Area of square -Area of two semicircles AOB and COD = 196 – 154 = 42 cm² Therefore, area of four shaded parts (i.e. X, Y, W, Z) = (2 x 42) cm² = 84 cm² Question 2. In figure, are shown two arcs PAQ and PBQ. Arc PAQ is a part of circle with centre O and radius OP while arc PBQ is a semicircle drawn on PQ as diameter with centre M. If OP = PQ = 10 cm, show that area of shaded region is 25(√3- π /6)cm² Solution: OP = OQ = 10 cm
  • 2. Expert’s class Ahmedabad Dhruv Thakar 8320495706 2 PQ = 10 cm So, ΔOPQ is an equilateral triangle ∠POQ = 60° Area of segment PAQM = Area of sector OPAQ – Area of ΔOPQ =60/360 x π x 10 x 10-√3/4 x 10 x 10 =(100π/6-100√3/4)cm² Area of semicircle =1/2 x π x 5 x 5 = 25/2π cm² Area of the shaded region =25/2π-(100π/6-100√3/4)=25π/2-50π/3+25√3 =75π-100π/6+25√3=25√3-25π/6 =25(√3-π/6)cm² Question 3. In figure, O is the centre of a circle such that diameter AB = 13 cm and AC = 12 cm. BC is joined. Find the area of the shaded region. Solution: Here, BC² = AB²-AC² = 169-144 = 25 BC = 5 Area of shaded region = Area of semicircle – Area of right triangle ABC =1/2 x πr²-1/2AC x BC =1/2 x 3.14(13/2)²-1/2 x 12 x 5 =66.33 – 30 = 36.33 cm² Question 4. In figure, find the area of the shaded region, enclosed between two concentric circles of radii 7 cm and 14 cm where∠AOC = 40°. Solution: Area of shaded region=360°-θ/360° x π(R²-r²) =320°/360° x π[(14)²-(7)²] =8/9 x 22/7(196-49)=8/9 x 22/7 x 147 =1232/3=410.67 cm² Question 5. Find the area of shaded region in figure, where a circle of radius 6 cm has been drawn with vertex O of an equilateral triangle OAB of side 12 cm
  • 3. Expert’s class Ahmedabad Dhruv Thakar 8320495706 3 Solution: Area of ΔOAB=√3/4(side)²=√3/4 x (12)² =36√3=36 x 1.73 =62.28 cm² area of circle with center O =πr²=3.14 x (6)² =3.14 x 36 =113.04 cm² area of sector(OLQP)=πr² x θ/360°=3.14 x 6² x 60°/360° =3.14 x 36 x 1/6 =18.84 cm² area of shaded region=area of ΔOAB+area of circle-2 area of sector OLQP =(62.28+113.04-2 x 18.84)cm² =137.64cm² Question 6. In figure, is a chord AB of a circle, with centre O and radius 10 cm, that subtends a right angle at the centre of the circle. Find the area of the minor segment AQBP. Hence, find the area of major segment ALBQA Solution: Area of minor segment APBQ=θ/360° x πr²-r²sin45°cos45° =3.14 x 100/4-100 x 1/√2 x 1/√2 =(78.5-50)cm²=28.5 cm² Area of major segment ALBQA =πr²-area of minor segment =3.14 x (10)²-28.5 =(314-28.5)cm²=285.5 cm² Long Answer Type Questions [4 Marks] Question 7.
