A chord of circle of radius 10 cm subtends a right angle at the centre. Find the area of the corresponding :

(i) Minor segment
(ii) Major sector.

Here, we have
r = 10 cm, and ө = 90°

Here, we haver = 10 cm, and ө = 90°Area of sector (OAPBO)Area of

Area of sector (OAPBO)

$equals space πr squared space equals space straight theta over 360 equals space 3.14 space straight x space 10 space straight x space 10 space straight x space 10 space straight x space 90 over 360 equals space 3.14 space straight x space 5 space straight x space 5 equals space 78.5 space cm squared$

Area of $increment$ AOB

$equals space 1 half straight r squared space space sin space straight theta space equals space 1 half space straight x space 10 space straight x space 10 space straight x space sin space 90 degree equals space space 1 half space straight x space 10 space straight x space 10 space straight x space 1 equals space 50 space cm squared$

Now,
(i) Let APB A is the given minor segment, then Area of minor segment (APBA)
= Area of sector (OAPBO) - area of ∆ (AOB)
= 78.5 cm² - 50 cm²= 28.5 cm².
(ii) Area of major sector
= Area of circle Area of sector OAPBO
= (πr² - 78.5) cm²= (3.14 × 10 × 10 - 78.5) cm²= (314 - 78.5) cm² = 235.5 cm²
