RS Aggarwal Solutions for Class 10 Maths Chapter 16–Areas of Circle, Sector and Segment Question 65

Question 66:
Angle described by the minute hand in 60 minutes θ = 360°
Angle described by minute hand in 20 minutes

RS Aggarwal Solutions for Class 10 Maths Chapter 16–Areas of Circle, Sector and Segment Question 66


Required area swept by the minute hand in 20 minutes
= Area of the sector(with r = 15 cm and θ = 120°)

RS Aggarwal Solutions for Class 10 Maths Chapter 16–Areas of Circle, Sector and Segment Question 66

Question 67:
θ = 56° and let radius is r cm
Area of sector = 

RS Aggarwal Solutions for Class 10 Maths Chapter 16–Areas of Circle, Sector and Segment Question 67
RS Aggarwal Solutions for Class 10 Maths Chapter 16–Areas of Circle, Sector and Segment Question 67



Hence radius = 6cm

Question 68:

RS Aggarwal Solutions for Class 10 Maths Chapter 16–Areas of Circle, Sector and Segment Question 68

Question 69:
In 2 days, the short hand will complete 4 rounds
∴ Distance travelled by its tip in 2 days
=4(circumference of the circle with r = 4 cm)
= (4 × 2 × 4) cm = 32 cm
In 2 days, the long hand will complete 48 rounds
∴ length moved by its tip
= 48(circumference of the circle with r = 6cm)
= (48 × 2 × 6) cm = 576 cm
∴ Sum of the lengths moved
= (32 + 576) = 608 cm
= (608 × 3.14) cm = 1909.12 cm

Question 70:
∆OAB is equilateral.
So, ∠AOB = 60°

RS Aggarwal Solutions for Class 10 Maths Chapter 16–Areas of Circle, Sector and Segment Question 70


Length of arc BDA = (2π × 12 – arc ACB) cm
= (24π – 4π) cm = (20π) cm
= (20 × 3.14) cm = 62.8 cm
Area of the minor segment ACBA

RS Aggarwal Solutions for Class 10 Maths Chapter 16–Areas of Circle, Sector and Segment Question 74

Area of the minor segment ACBA
= (area of the sector OACBO) – (area of the ∆OAB)
=(471 – 389.25) cm2 = 81.75 cm2
Area of the major segment BADB
= (area of circle) – (area of the minor segment)
= [(3.14 × 30 × 30) – 81.75)] cm2 = 2744.25 cm2
