A chord of a circle of radius 10 cm subtends a right angle at the centre. Find the area of the corresponding : (i) minor segment (ii) major sector.

Answer» 1) area(minor segment)=area(sectorOAB)-area(triangleOAB)
=`theta/360pir^2-1/2OA*ob`
=`90/360*22/7*100^2-1/2100^2`
=28.25 `cm^2`
2) area(major segment)=`theta/360*3.14*100^2`=`270/360*3.14*100^2`=235.5 `cm^2`
