Area of segment
Find the area of light green segment correct to three significant figures.
Given that: An isosceles triangle is inscribed in a circle such that AB=AC;
Given that: An isosceles triangle is inscribed in a circle such that AB=AC;
Line XY and BC are parallel,
Where BC is =20cm,
AP is a perpendicular to BC and at D and passing through center of the circle.
The area of Triangle AXY= (4428/35) cm2
Area of segment Brown segment BC= (38.53357802) cm2
.
This question requires Algebra, properties of circle and manipulation skills to deal with similarity and congruency.
Given options
A=347 cm2
B=285 cm2
C=372 cm2
D=430 cm2
E=257 cm2
