(ii) The area of region (AEG + EBF) is 77 cm².

(iii) The area of shaded region GEFCD is 469 cm².

(iv) The area of shaded region (AEG + EBF) is 308 cm².

Which of the above statements are correct Choose the correct option from the following:

1 (i) and (ii)  
2 (iii) and (iv)  
3 (i) and (iii)  
4 (ii) and (iv)  

Ans.

(1)

AGE and FEB are quarter circles with radius 142=7 cm

Therefore, Area of quarter circles AGE + Area of quarter circle FEB

=π(7)24+π(7)24=π(7)22=227×(7)22=77 cm2 (ii) is correctArea of upper semi-circle (diameter DC)=12×π(DC)24=227×14×144×12=77 cm2Area of blue shaded region=Area of rectangle ABCD-Area of region (AEG + FEB)-Area of semicircle with diameter DC=(50×14)-77-77=546 cm2(i) is correct
