Ex 11.1, 7
A chord of a circle of radius 12 cm subtends an angle of 120Β° at the centre. Find the area of the corresponding segment of the circle.
(Use Ο = 3.14 and β3 = 1.73)
In a given circle,
Radius (r) = 12 cm
And, π½ = 120Β°
Now,
Area of segment APB = Area of sector OAPB β Area of ΞOAB
Finding Area of sector OAPB
Area of sector OAPB = π/360Γ ππ2
= 120/360Γ3.14Γ(12)2
= 1/3Γ3.14Γ12Γ12
= 1 Γ 3.14 Γ 4 Γ 12
= 150.72 cm2

Finding area of Ξ AOB
We draw OM β₯ AB
β΄ β OMB = β OMA = 90Β°
And, by symmetry
M is the mid-point of AB
β΄ BM = AM = 1/2 AB
In right triangle Ξ OMA
sin O = (side opposite to angle O)/Hypotenuse
sin ππΒ° = ππ΄/π¨πΆ
β3/2=π΄π/12
β3/2 Γ 12 = AM
AM = 6βπ
In right triangle Ξ OMA
cos O = (π πππ ππππππππ‘ π‘π πππππ π)/π»π¦πππ‘πππ’π π
cos ππΒ° = πΆπ΄/π¨πΆ
1/2=ππ/12
12/2 = OM
OM = 6
From (1)
AM = π/πAB
2AM = AB
AB = 2AM
Putting value of AM
AB = 2 Γ 6 β3
AB = 12βπ cm
Now,
Area of Ξ AOB = 1/2 Γ Base Γ Height
= π/π Γ AB Γ OM
= 1/2 Γ 12β3 Γ 6
= 36β3
= 36 Γ 1.73
= 62.28 cm2
Therefore,
Area of segment APB
= Area of sector OAPB β Area of ΞOAB
= 150.72 β 62.28
= 88.44 cm2
