Detailed Solution

It is given that from each corner of a square of side 4 cm  , a quadrant of a circle of radius 1 cm  is cut, and also a circle of diameter 2 cm  is cut.
From each corner of a square of side 4 cm a quadrant of a circle of radius 1 cm is cut and also a circle of diameter 2 cm is cut as shown in Fig. 12.23. Find the area of the remaining portion of the squareThe area of the circle is given by A=π r 2 ,   where r is the radius of the circle.
Side of the square is a=4cm  .
 So, the area of a square ABCD is,
A= a 2   A= 4 2  
  A=16  cm 2  
It is given that the diameter of the circle is d=2 cm.  
Thus, radius = 1cm.
The area of a middle circle is,
A'=π (1) 2 A'=π   It is given that the radius of the quadrant of a circle is r=1 cm  .
So the area of 4 quadrants are, A c =4× π r 2 90 ° 360 °  .
A c =4× π (1) 2 4 A c =π  
The area of the remaining portion of the square is,
A s =A A c +A'   A s =16(π+π)  
  A s =(162π) cm 2  
Hence, the area of shaded region is ( 162π  )cm2.
Therefore, the correct answer is option (1).
