Find the perimeter and area of the shaded region."



 Given :

AD  =  6 cm ; AB = BC = CD

To Find : 


i) Perimeter of shaded region

ii) Area of shaded region

Solution :


AD  =  6 cm  ; AB = BC = CD

$AD \ = \ AB + BC + CD$

$AD \ = \ AB + AB + AB$

$AD \ = \ 3 AB$

$ \begin{array}{l}
\frac{AD}{3} \ =\ AB\\
\\
AB\ \ =\ \ \frac{6}{3}
\end{array}$

AB  =  2 cm   ;  BC  =  2 cm  ;  CD  =  2 cm

There are Three Circles.

Circle 1 : 

Diameter AD  =  6 cm

$ \begin{array}{l}
Radius\ =\ \frac{Diameter}{2}\\
\\
Radius\ =\ \frac{6}{2}
\end{array}$

Radius  (r1)= 3 cm

Circle 2 :


Diameter    BD  =  4 cm

Radius (r2)  =  BC  =  2 cm

Circle 3 :


Diameter AB = 2 cm

$Radius\ =\ \frac{Diameter}{2}$

$Radius\ =\ \frac{2}{2}$

Radius  (r3)= 1 cm

i) Perimeter of Shaded region :

Formula to find Circumference of circle  =  2πr

Circumference of  semi circle = $\frac{2πr}{2}$

Circumference of  semi circle = πr

Perimeter of Shaded region = Circumference of  semi circle 1 + Circumference of 

semi circle 2 + Circumference of  semi circle 3 

Perimeter of Shaded region = $$\displaystyle π\ r\ _{1\ } \ +\ π\ r\ _{2} \ +\ π\ r\ _{3}$$

Take π as common ,

$$\displaystyle π\ ( \ r_{1} \ +r_{2} \ +r_{3} \ \ )$$

$$\displaystyle π\ ( 3\ +\ 2\ +\ 1)$$

π 6  

Perimeter of Shaded region = 6 π cm

ii) Area of shaded region :

Formula to area of circle = πr   

Area of semi circle = $\frac{π\ r^{2}}{2}$

Area of Shaded region =  Area of semi circle 1 - Area of semi circle 2 + Area of semi

circle 3 

Area of Shaded region =$$\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}\left( \ π\ r\ ^{2}_{1} -\ π\ r\ ^{2}_{2} \ +\ π\ r\ ^{2}_{3} \ \right)$$

Take π as common,

$$\displaystyle \frac{π}{2}\left( \ \ r\ ^{2}_{1} -\ \ r\ ^{2}_{2} \ +\ \ r\ ^{2}_{3} \ \right)$$

$$\displaystyle \frac{π}{2} \ \left( \ 3\ ^{2}_{\ } \ -2\ ^{2}_{\ } \ +1\ ^{2} \ \ \right)$$

$$\displaystyle \frac{π}{2} \ ( 9\ -\ 4\ +\ 1)$$

$$\displaystyle \frac{6\ π}{2}$$


Area of Shaded region = 3 π cm2
