In a circle of radius 21 cm, an arc subtends an angle of at the centre.Find: (i) the length of the arc (ii) area of the sector formed by the arc.
In fig., a circle with centre O is inscribed in a quadrilateral ABCD such that, it touches the sides BC, AB, AD and CD at points P, Q, R and S respectively, If AB = 29 cm, AD = 23 cm, B = 90o and DS = 5 cm, then the radius of thecircle (in cm) is

Two circular pieces of equal radii and maximum area, touching each otherare cut out from a rectangular card board of dimensions 14 cm x 7 cm. Find the area of the remaining card board.
[ Use π = 22/7 ]
Dimensions of the rectangle card board = 14 cm x 7 cm
Since, two circular pieces of equal radii and maximum area touching each other are cut from the rectangular card board, therefore, the diameter oa each of each circular pieces is (14/2) = 7 cm
Radius of each circular piece = 7/2 cm
&there; Sum of area of two circualr pieces
= 2 x π x (7/2)2 = 2 x (22/7) x (49/4) = 77 cm2
Area of the remaining cardboard
= Area of the cardboard - Area of the two circular pieces
= 14 cm x 7 cm - 77 cm2
= 98 cm2 - 77 cm2
= 21 cm2
In fig., a circle is inscribed in triangle ABC touches its sides AB, BC and ACat points D, E and F respectively. If AB = 12 cm, BC = 8 cm and AC = 10cm, then find the length of AD, BE and CF.
In fig., l and m are two parallel tangents to a circle with centre O,touching the circle at A and B respectively. Another tangent at C intersects the line l at D and m at E. Prove that DOE = 900
