A sector of circle of radius equal to one fourth of the diagonal of square is cut from the square taking one corner of the square as centre. If side of the square is 4 cm. then area of the remaining part is
Diagonal of the square = 4√2 cm.
Hence radius of the circle = 4√2/4 cm. = √2 cm.
Area of the sector of circle = 1/4 (π* radius2)
= 1/4 (π* (√2)2 )
= π/2
Area of the square = 4*4 = =16 cm.2
Hence area of remaining part = 16- (π/2) cm.2
= 14.43 cm^2
The essence of mathematics is not to make simple things complicated, but to make complicated things simple.
