An arc of a circle of length 22 cm subtends an angle of 3x° at the center of the circle. Find the value of x if the diameter of the circle is 14 cm A. 60o B. 120o C. 180o D. 30o Detailed Solution\( ARC\hspace{1mm}length = (\frac{\theta}{360})\times 2\pi r\\22=\frac{3x}{360}\times \left(2 \times(\frac{22}{7})\times(\frac{7}{1})\right)\\3x = 180\\x = \frac{180}{3}\\x = 60^{\circ}\) |

 In the diagram above, PQ = 4 cm and TS = 6 cm. If the area of parallelogram PQTU is 32 cm\(^2\), find the area of the trapezium PQRU A. 60 cm2 B. 72 cm2 C. 48 cm2 D. 24 cm2 Detailed SolutionArea of parallelogram PQTU = base * height32 = 4 * h w = 32/4 w = 8 ∴ = Area of Trapezium PQRU = (1/2)(4 + 14) *8 = 1/2 * (18 * 8) = 72 cm\(^2\) |

 P, R and S lie on a circle center as shown above while Q lies outside the circle. Find ∠PSO A. 45o B. 55o C. 35o D. 40o Detailed Solutionxo = 35 + 29 (Exterior angle = sum of two interior opposite angles)x = 55o (∠ at the center twice ∠ at circumference) y = 110o ∠PSO = ∠SPO (base ∠S of 1sc Δ b/c PO = SO) ∴ ∠PSO = (180 - 110)/2 = 35o |
