Circle

Geometry Level 2

Two identical circles intersect so that their centres and the points at which they intersect forms a square of side 1 cm.The area in sq.cm of the portion that is common to the two circles ?

π 5 \frac\pi5 π 4 \frac\pi4 π \pi π 2 1 \frac\pi2-1

Area of common region between the two circles is

2 × 2\times (area of one of the circular sectors subtending angle π 2 \dfrac π2 at the centre of the corresponding circle -area of the isosceles right triangle formed with the two radii of that circle and the common chord)

= 2 ( 1 2 × 1 2 × π 2 1 2 ) =2\left (\dfrac 12\times 1^2\times \dfrac π2-\dfrac 12\right )

= π 2 1 =\boxed {\dfrac π2-1} .

Same method!

@Srijan Singh hey,have you done ?

You have messed up somewhere in that problem. There are many answers to that problem. For example, a = 1 , b = 12 , c = 39 ; a = 2 , b = 12 , c = 26 , a=1,b=12,c=39;a=2,b=12,c=26, so on.
