Ex 11.1, 6 A chord of a circle of radius 15 cm subtends an angle of 60Β° at the centre. Find the areas of the corresponding minor and major segments of the circle. (Use Ο€ = 3.14 and √3 = 1.73) In a given circle, Radius (r) = 15 cm And, 𝜽 = 60Β° Now, Area of segment APB = Area of sector OAPB – Area of Ξ”OAB Finding Area of sector OAPB Area of sector OAPB = πœƒ/360 Γ— πœ‹π‘Ÿ2 = 60/360 Γ— 3.14 Γ— (15)2 = 1/6 Γ— 3.14 Γ— 15 Γ— 15 = 1/2 Γ— 3.14 Γ— 5 Γ— 15 = 117.75 cm2 Finding area of Ξ” AOB We draw OM βŠ₯ AB ∴ ∠ OMB = ∠ OMA = 90Β° And, by symmetry M is the mid-point of AB ∴ BM = AM = 1/2 AB In right triangle Ξ” OMA sin O = (side opposite to angle O)/Hypotenuse sin πŸ‘πŸŽΒ° = 𝐀𝑴/𝑨𝑢 1/2=𝐴𝑀/15 15/2 = AM AM = πŸπŸ“/𝟐 In right triangle Ξ” OMA cos O = (𝑠𝑖𝑑𝑒 π‘Žπ‘‘π‘—π‘Žπ‘π‘’π‘›π‘‘ π‘‘π‘œ π‘Žπ‘›π‘”π‘™π‘’ 𝑂)/π»π‘¦π‘π‘œπ‘‘π‘’π‘›π‘’π‘ π‘’ cos πŸ‘πŸŽΒ° = 𝑢𝑴/𝑨𝑢 √3/2=𝑂𝑀/21 √3/2 Γ— 15 = OM OM = βˆšπŸ‘/𝟐 Γ— 15 From (1) AM = 𝟏/𝟐AB 2AM = AB AB = 2AM Putting value of AM AB = 2 Γ— 1/2 Γ— 15 AB = 15 cm Now, Area of Ξ” AOB = 1/2 Γ— Base Γ— Height = 𝟏/𝟐 Γ— AB Γ— OM = 1/2 Γ— 15 Γ— √3/2 Γ— 15 = 1/2 Γ— 15 Γ— 1.73/2 Γ— 15 = 97.3125 cm2 Therefore, Area of segment APB = Area of sector OAPB – Area of Ξ”OAB = 117.75 – 97.3125 = 20.4375 cm2 Thus, Area of minor segment = 20.4375 cm2 Now, Area of major segment = Area of circle – Area of minor segment = Ο€r2βˆ’ 20.4375 = 3.14 Γ— πŸπŸ“πŸβˆ’ 20.4375 = 3.14 Γ— 15 Γ— 15βˆ’"20.4375" = 706.5 – 20.4375 = 686.0625 cm2
