Given a circle of radius ‘ r ’ with centre ‘O’. Chord AB makes 90° angle at centre O .
(Radius,r=522cm)Analyse the following statements:
(i) Difference between areas of two segments ADB and ACB made by chord AB is 254π+2 cm2
(ii) Area of ΔAOB=252 cm2
(iii) Length of chord AB=5 cm
(iv) Length of arc ACB=32π4 cm
Which of the above statements are correct Choose the correct option from the following:
(4)
ΔAOB is right-angled at OLength of chord AB:AB=AO2+BO2=r2+r2=2r=2×52=5 cm (iii) is correct.Area o fΔAOB:Area=12×AO×BO=12r2=12522=254 cm2Thus(ii) is incorrect(because statement(ii)says252,not254).Length of arc ACB:Arc length=θ360°×circumference=90°360°×2πr=14×2π×52=52π4 cmBut statement(iv) says32π4,so(iv) is incorrect.Finding areas of segmentsLet A1=area of minor segment ACBLet A2=area of major segment ADBArea of a segment: θ360°πr2-12r2Forθ=90°: A1=π360×90-12r2=π4-12522A1=25π8-254cm2Area of entire circle:πr2=π×522=25π2A2=25π2-A1A2=25π2-25π8-254=75π8+254Required difference:A2-A1=75π8+254-25π8-254=254π+2 cm2∴ (i) is correct
