Three circles each of radius 5 cm touch one another. The area (in cm2) subtended between them is:

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 25(3−π2)25(\sqrt3-\frac{\pi}{2}).

The radius of each circle = 5 cm

The area subtended between them = r2(3−π2)(\sqrt3-\frac{\pi}{2})

= 52(3−π2)(\sqrt3-\frac{\pi}{2})

= 25(3−π2)25(\sqrt3-\frac{\pi}{2})
