Q2:
Find the area of a quadrant of a circle whose circumference is 22 cm. (Unless stated otherwise, use $\pi = \frac{22}{7}$)
Solution :
Given: The circumference of a circle is $C = 22 \text{ cm}$.
To find: The area of a quadrant of the circle.
Step 1: Finding the radius of the circle.
The formula for the circumference of a circle is given by:
$C = 2\pi r$
Substituting the given value $C = 22 \text{ cm}$ and $\pi = \frac{22}{7}$:
$22 = 2 \times \left(\frac{22}{7}\right) \times r$
To isolate $r$, multiply both sides by $7$ and divide by $(2 \times 22)$:
$r = \frac{22 \times 7}{2 \times 22}$
$r = \frac{7}{2} \text{ cm}$
$r = 3.5 \text{ cm}$
Step 2: Defining the area of a quadrant.
A quadrant is one-fourth of a circle. Therefore, the area of a quadrant ($A_q$) is given by:
$A_q = \frac{1}{4} \times \text{Area of the circle}$
$A_q = \frac{1}{4} \times \pi r^2$
Step 3: Calculating the area.
Substitute $r = \frac{7}{2}$ and $\pi = \frac{22}{7}$ into the formula:
$A_q = \frac{1}{4} \times \frac{22}{7} \times \left(\frac{7}{2}\right)^2$
$A_q = \frac{1}{4} \times \frac{22}{7} \times \frac{7}{2} \times \frac{7}{2}$
Cancel the common factors ($7$ in the numerator and denominator):
$A_q = \frac{1}{4} \times \frac{22 \times 7}{2 \times 2}$
$A_q = \frac{1}{4} \times \frac{154}{4}$
$A_q = \frac{154}{16}$
Simplify the fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by $2$:
$A_q = \frac{77}{8} \text{ cm}^2$
Converting to decimal form:
$A_q = 9.625 \text{ cm}^2$
Final Answer: The area of the quadrant is 9.625 cm² (or $\frac{77}{8}$ cm²).
