Question:
Find the area of a quadrant of a circle whose circumference is 44 cm.
Solution:
Let the radius of the circle be r.
Now,
Circumference $=44$
$\Rightarrow 2 \pi r=44$
$\Rightarrow r=7 \mathrm{~cm}$
Now,
Area of quadrant $=\frac{1}{4} \pi r^{2}=\frac{1}{4} \times \frac{22}{7} \times(7)^{2}=38.5 \mathrm{~cm}^{2}$
Hence, the area of the quadrant of the circle is 38.5 cm2.
