SSC CGL Tier II Quant - 20/02/2018 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q39

In the given figure, PQR is a quadrant whose radius is 7 cm. A circle is inscribed in the quadrant as shown in the figure. What is the area (in cm2) of the circle?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 462 – 308√2

ATQ,

√2r + r = 7

⇒ r (√2 + 1) = 7

⇒ r = 7 (√2 – 1)

Area of Circle = π × r2

= 22 × 7 (3 - 2√2)

= 462 – 308√2
