Find the area of a quadrant of a circle whose circumference is 66 cm.

  • 1

Circumference 2 x (22/7) x r = 66 gives radius r = 21/2 cm. The area of the quadrant is (1/4) x π x r² = (1/4) x (22/7) x (21/2)² = 693/8 = 86.625 cm².

  1. Circumference of the circle = 2 x π x r = 66 cm.

    Using π = 22/7:

    2 x (22/7) x r = 66

    (44/7) x r = 66

    r = (66 x 7) / 44 = (3 x 7) / 2 = 21/2 cm = 10.5 cm.

    A quadrant has a central angle of 90°.

    Area of a quadrant = (1/4) x π x r²

    = (1/4) x (22/7) x (21/2) x (21/2)

    = (1/4) x 11 x 3 x (21/2) = 693 / 8 = 86.625 cm².

    Hence, the area of the quadrant is 86.625 cm².
