Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option D
Area mcq solution image
We have :
Required area :
$$\eqalign{ & = \frac{{\pi {r^2}{\theta _1}}}{{360}} + \frac{{\pi {r^2}{\theta _2}}}{{360}} + \frac{{\pi {r^2}{\theta _3}}}{{360}} \cr & = \frac{{\pi {r^2}}}{{360}}\left( {{\theta _1} + {\theta _2} + {\theta _3}} \right) \cr & = \frac{{\pi {r^2} \times 180}}{{360}} \left[ {\because {\theta _1} + {\theta _2} + {\theta _3} = 180^ \circ} \right] \cr & = \frac{{\pi {r^2}}}{2}Or = \frac{1}{2}\pi {r^2} \cr} $$
