Let the radius of the circle be r сm. Then,
Diameter = 2r cm and Circumference = 2πr cm
According to question,
Circumference = Diameter + 16.8
⇒ 2πr = 2r + 16.8
⇒ 2 × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × r = 2r + 16.8
⇒ 44r = 14r + 16.8 × 7
⇒ 44r – 14r = 117.6 or 30r = 117.6

Inner circumference = 2πr = 220 m

Since the track is 7 m wide everywhere. Therefore,
R = Outer radius = r + 7 = (35 + 7)m = 42 m
∴ Outer circumference = 2πR = 2 × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 42m = 264m
Rate of fencing = ₹ 2 per metre
∴ Total cost of fencing = (Circumference × Rate) = ₹(264 × 2) = ₹ 528

\(\frac{30^{\circ}}{360^{\circ}}\) × 3.14 × 4 × 4 cm²
= \(\frac{12.56}{3}\)cm²
= 4.19 cm² (approx.)
Area of the corresponding major sector = πr² – Area of sector OAPB
= (3.14 × 4 × 4 – 4.19)cm² = (50.24 – 4.19) cm²
= 46.05 cm² = 46.1 cm² (approx.)

Hence, cost of making such designs = ₹ 162.69

Question 15.
Find the area of the shaded region in Fig. 12.20, if PQ = 24 cm, PR = 7 cm and O is the centre of the circle.
Solution:

Here, ROQ is the diameter of given circle, therefore ∠RPQ = 90°
Now, in right angled ΔPRQ, we have
RQ² = RP² + PQ² (by Pythagoras Theorem)
RQ² = (7)² + (24)² = 49 + 576 = 625
RQ = \(\sqrt{625}\) = 25 cm

= 9 × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 7 × 7 = 1386 cm²
Now, each side of square ABCD = 3 × diameter of circular design
= 3 × 14 = 42 cm
∴ Area of square ABCD = (42)² = 1764 cm²

AB = 3.5 cm ⇒ r = 3.5 cm
Area of quadrant = \(\frac{1}{4}\)πr²
.025 × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 3.5 × 3.5 = 9.625 cm²
The area of shaded region = 24.5 – 9.625 = 14.875 cm²

Areas Related to Circles Class 10 Extra Questions HOTS

Question 1.
Two circles touch internally. The sum of their areas is 116 ncmo and distance between their centres is 6 cm. Find the radii of the circles.
Solution:

Let R and r be the radii of the circles [Fig. 12.52].
Then, according to question,
⇒ πR² +πr² = 116π
⇒ R² + r² = 116 …..(i)
Distance between the centres = 6 cm
⇒ OO’ = 6 cm
⇒ R – s = 6 …(ii)
Now, (R + r)² + (R – 1)² = 2(R² + m²)
Using the equation (i) and (ii), we get
(R + r)² + 36 = 2 × 116
= (R + r)² = (2 x 116 – 36) = 196
= R + r = 14 …..(iii)
Solving (ii) and (iii), we get R = 10 and r = 4
Hence, radii of the given circles are 10 cm and 4 cm respectively.

Question 2.
A bicycle wheel makes 5000 revolutions in moving 11 km. Find the diameter of the wheel.
Solution:
Let the radius of the wheel be r сm.

∴ Diameter = 2r cm = (2 × 35) cm = 70 cm
Hence, the diameter of the wheel is 70 cm.

Question 3.
Find the area of the shaded design of Fig. 12.53, where ABCD is a square of side 10 cm and semicircles are drawn with each side of the square as diameter (use π = 3.14).

Solution:

Let us mark the four unshaded regions as I, II, III and IV (Fig. 12.53).
Area of I + Area of III
= Area of ABCD – Areas of two semicircles of radius 5 cm each

= (100 – 3.14 × 25) cm² = (100 – 78.5) cm² = 21.5 cm²
Similarly, Area of II + Area of IV = 21.5 cm²
So, Area of the shaded design
= Area of ABCD – Area of (I + II + III + IV)
= (100 – 2 × 21.5) cm²
= (100 – 43) cm² = 57 cm²

Question 4.
A copper wire, when bent in the form of a square, encloses an area of 484 cm². If the same wire is bent in the form of a circle, find the area enclosed by it.
Solution:
We have, Area of the square = a² = 484 cm²
∴ Side of the square = √1484 cm = 22 cm
So, Perimeter of the square = 4 (side) = (4 × 22) cm = 88 cm
Let r be the radius of the circle. Then, according to question,
Circumference of the circle = Perimeter of the square

Question 5.
Two circles touch externally. The sum of their areas is 130 r sq. cm and the distance between their centres is 14 cm. Find the radii of the circles.
Solution:

If two circles touch externally, then the distance between their centres is equal to the sum of their radii.
Let the radii of the two circles be r, cm and r² cm respectively [Fig. 12.55).
Let C, and C, be the centres of the given circles. Then,
C₁C₂ = r₁ +r₂
= 14 = r₁ +r₂
[∵ C₁C₂ = 14 cm given]
= r₁ +r₂ = 14
It is given that the sum of the areas of two circles is equal to 130 n cm²

Solving (i) and (iv), we get r₁ = 11 cm and r₂ = 3 cm.
Hence, the radii of the two circles are 11 cm and 3 cm.

Question 6.
In Fig. 12.56, from a rectangular region ABCD with A
AB = 20 cm, a right triangle AED with AE = 9 cm and DE = 12 cm, is cut off. On the other end, taking BC as diameter, a semicircle is added on outside the region. Find the area of the shaded region. [Use π = 3.14]

Solution:
Area of shaded region
= Area of rectangle – Area of triangle + Area of semicircle. In right ∆ADE.
AD² = AE² + DE²

Area of rectangle = AB × BC = 20 × 15 = 300 cm²
Area of shaded region = 300 + 88.31 – 54 = 334.31 cm²

Question 7.
In the given Fig. 12.58, the side of square is 28 cm and radius of each circle is half of the length of the side of the square where O and O’ are centres of the circles. Find the area of shaded region.

Solution:
Area of shaded region
= Area of square + Area of 2 major sectors having angle 270° at centre

Question 8.
In the given Fig. 12.59, ABCD is a rectangle of dimensions 21 cm × 14 cm. A semicircle is drawn with BC as diameter. Find the area and the perimeter of the shaded region in the figure.
Solution:

Area of shaded region
Area of shaded region
= Area of rectangle – Area of semicircle
=(l × b) – \(\frac{1}{2}\) × π × r²
= (21 × 14) – \(\frac{1}{2}\) × π × 7 × 7
= 294 – \(\frac{1}{2}\) × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 7 × 7
= 294 – 77 = 217 cm²
Now, perimeter of shaded region = 2l + b + circumference of semicircle i.e.; πr
= 2 × 21 + 14 + \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 7
= 56 + 22 = 78 cm
