Class 10 Maths Chapter 11 Previous Year Questions - Areas Related to Circles  View Answer

Ans: Here, radius t(r) = 14 cm and  Sector angle (θ) = 60°
∴ Area of the sector
Class 10 Maths Chapter 11 Previous Year Questions - Areas Related to Circles

= 102.67 cm2
Class 10 Maths Chapter 11 Previous Year Questions - Areas Related to Circles
Since ∠O = 60° and OA = OB = 14 cm
∴ AOB is an equilateral triangle.
⇒ AS = 14 cm and ∠A = 60°
Draw OM ⊥ AB.

Now, area of the minor segment= (Area of minor sector) - (ar ΔAOB)
= 102.67 - 84.87 cm2
= 17.8 cm2
Area of the major segment
= Area of the circle - Area of the minor segment  
Class 10 Maths Chapter 11 Previous Year Questions - Areas Related to Circles

= (616 - 17.8) cm= 598.2 cm2

∵ Length of arc = Class 10 Maths Chapter 11 Previous Year Questions - Areas Related to Circles
Class 10 Maths Chapter 11 Previous Year Questions - Areas Related to Circles
= 21 cm
Hence, radius of the circle is 21cm.


Q9: A circular park is surrounded by a road 21 m wide. If the radius of the park is 105 m, find the area of the road. (CBSE 2020)

Class 10 Maths Chapter 11 Previous Year Questions - Areas Related to Circles  View Answer

Ans: 

Class 10 Maths Chapter 11 Previous Year Questions - Areas Related to Circles

Given: Width of road = 21 m 
Radius of park, r= 105 m  
⇒ Radius of the whole circular portion (park + road) 
r2 = 105 + 21 = 126 m 
So, Area of road = Area of park and road – Area of park 
Class 10 Maths Chapter 11 Previous Year Questions - Areas Related to Circles
Hence, the area of the road is 15246 m2.

Class 10 Maths Chapter 11 Previous Year Questions - Areas Related to Circles  View Answer

Ans: Given. O is the centre of the circle of radius 21cm and AB is the chord that subtends an angle of 120° at the centre.
Class 10 Maths Chapter 11 Previous Year Questions - Areas Related to Circles
Draw OM ⊥ AB,
Area of the minor segment AMBP = Area of sector OAPB - Area of ΔAOB
Now, area of sector OAPB
= Class 10 Maths Chapter 11 Previous Year Questions - Areas Related to Circles
= 462 cm2
Since, OM ⊥ AB.
Class 10 Maths Chapter 11 Previous Year Questions - Areas Related to Circles[∵ Perpendicular from the centre to the chord bisects the angle subtended by the chord at the centre.]
In ΔAOM, sin60° = AM/AO, cos60° = OM/OA

Q13: A chord PQ of a circle of radius 10 cm subtends an angle of 60° at the centre of the circle. Find the area of major and minor segments of the circle.    (Delhi 2017)

Class 10 Maths Chapter 11 Previous Year Questions - Areas Related to Circles  View Answer

Ans:  Radius of the circle = 10 cm
Central angle subtended by chord AB = 60°
Area of minor sector OACB
Class 10 Maths Chapter 11 Previous Year Questions - Areas Related to Circles
Area of equilateral triangle OAB formed by radii and chord
Class 10 Maths Chapter 11 Previous Year Questions - Areas Related to Circles
∴ Area of minor segment ACBD
= Area of sector OACB - Area of triangle OAB
= (52.38 - 43.30) cm2 = 9.08 cm2
Area of circle = πr
Class 10 Maths Chapter 11 Previous Year Questions - Areas Related to Circles
∴ Area of major segment ADBE
= Area circle - Area of minor segment
= (314.28 - 9.08) cm2 = 305.20 cm2

Class 10 Maths Chapter 11 Previous Year Questions - Areas Related to Circles  View Answer

Ans: In right triangle ABC.
AB2 + AC2 = BC2
⇒ (3)2 + (4)2 = BC2 ⇒ 9 + 16 = BC2  ⇒ 25 = BC2
∴ BC = 5 cm
Now, Area of shaded region = Area of semicircle on side AB + area of semicircle on side AC - area of semicircle on side BC + area of ΔABC

Q16: Two circles touch internally. The sum of their areas is 116π cm2 and the distance between their centres is 6 cm. Find the radii of the circles. (CBSE 2017)

Class 10 Maths Chapter 11 Previous Year Questions - Areas Related to Circles  View Answer

Ans: Let ‘r’ and ‘R’ be the radii of the smaller and bigger circles, respectively. 
Then, OO’ = R – r = 6 cm [Given] ...(i) 
Also, sum of their areas = 116π cm2
i.e., πR2 + πr2 = 116π

Class 10 Maths Chapter 11 Previous Year Questions - Areas Related to Circles⇒ R2 + r2 = 116 ...(ii)
We know, (R – r)2 = R2 + r2 – 2Rr 
⇒ (6)2 = 116 – 2Rr 
⇒ 2Rr = 116 – 36 = 80 
⇒ Rr = 40 ...(iii) 
Also, (R + r)2 = R+ r2 + 2Rr = 116 + 2 × 40 [Using (ii) and (iii)] 
⇒ (R + r)2 = 196 
⇒ R + r = 14 ...(iv) 
Now, adding equations (i) and (iv), we get 
2R = 20 
⇒ R = 10 cm 
Putting the value of R in equation (i), we get 
r = 4 cm 
Hence, the radii of the bigger and smaller circles are 10 cm and 4 cm, respectively.

Q17: In Fig. 12.34, 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. (Take k = 3.14)    (CBSE (AI) 2016)
Class 10 Maths Chapter 11 Previous Year Questions - Areas Related to Circles

Class 10 Maths Chapter 11 Previous Year Questions - Areas Related to Circles  View Answer

Ans:  In ΔABC, ∠ACB = 90° (Angle in the semicircle)
∴ BC2 + AC2 = AB2
∴ BC2 = AB2 -AC2
= 169 - 144 = 25
∴ BC = 5 cm
Area of the shaded region = area of semicircle - area of right AABC

Class 10 Maths Chapter 11 Previous Year Questions - Areas Related to Circles

Class 10 Maths Chapter 11 Previous Year Questions - Areas Related to Circles  View Answer

Ans: Given, A circle of radius (r) = 10 cm in which ∠AOB = 90º. 
Area of the minor segment AQBP = Area of sector OAPB – Area of ΔAOB 
= θ / 360° × πr2 – 1 /2 × OA × OB 
= 90 / 360 °  × 3.14 × 10 × 10 – 1/ 2 × 10 × 10 
= 3.14 × 5 × 5 – 5 × 10 
= 78.5 – 50 
= 28.5 cm2 

So, Area of the minor segment AQBP = 28.5 cm2
Area of the major segment ALBQA = Area of circle – Area of minor segment AQBP 
= 3.14 × (10)2 – 28.5 
= 314 – 28.5 
= 285.5 cm2
Area of major segment ALBQA = 285.5 cm2. Hence, the area of the minor segment AQBP is 28.5 cm2 and the area of the major segment ALBQA is 285.5 cm2.

FAQs on Class 10 Maths Chapter 11 Previous Year Questions - Areas Related to Circles

1. What is the formula for the area of a circle?
Ans. The formula for the area of a circle is given by \( A = \pi r^2 \), where \( A \) is the area and \( r \) is the radius of the circle.
2. How do you find the circumference of a circle?
Ans. The circumference of a circle can be found using the formula \( C = 2\pi r \), where \( C \) is the circumference and \( r \) is the radius of the circle.
3. What is the difference between radius and diameter in circles?
Ans. The radius of a circle is the distance from the center to any point on the circle, while the diameter is the distance across the circle through the center, which is twice the radius. Hence, \( d = 2r \).
4. How do you calculate the area of a sector of a circle?
Ans. The area of a sector of a circle can be calculated using the formula \( A = \frac{\theta}{360} \times \pi r^2 \), where \( A \) is the area, \( \theta \) is the angle of the sector in degrees, and \( r \) is the radius of the circle.
5. What is the relationship between the radius, diameter, and circumference of a circle?
Ans. The relationship is given by the formulas: the diameter is twice the radius \( (d = 2r) \) and the circumference is related to the diameter by \( C = \pi d \). Thus, the circumference can also be expressed as \( C = 2\pi r \).
