Question

Given: AB tangent at D, AD = OD = 4 Find: Area of the shaded region

Answer 1

Answer:

1.72

Step-by-step explanation:

AB tangent at D, AD = OD = 4

so triangle OAD is right angle with side of 4 and 4.

area of OAD = 1/2 * 4 * 4 = 8

Angle AOD = DAO = 45 deg.

so circular sector OCD area = area of circle O * 45/360

= pi * 4 * 4 * 45/360

= 2pi

Shade area ACD = trigangle OAD - circular sector OCD

= 8 - 2pi

= 1.72
