Question

In figure, ABCD is a square of side 10 cm and a circle is inscribed in it. The area of the shaded part is ______.

Answer 1

In figure, ABCD is a square of side 10 cm and a circle is inscribed in it. The area of the shaded part is `underlinebb(((100 - 25π)/8) cm^2)`.

Explanation:

Area(square) = 10² = 100 cm². 

Inscribed circle has radius 5,

So area(circle) = π·5² = 25π cm². 

Shaded area = area(square) – area(circle)

= 100 – 25π cm² (≈ 21.46 cm²)
