Detailed Solution

Given, ABCD is a square of side 5 cm inscribed in a circle.
Question ImageDiagonal AC is the diameter of the circle with centre O.
OC=OA= radius of the circle.
AB=AC=5 cm.
ABCis a right-angled triangle.
Pythagoras theorem states that the square of the hypotenuse side in a right-angled triangle equals the sum of the squares of the other two sides.
According to Pythagoras's theorem, AC2=AB2+AC2.
AC2=52+52 AC2=50cm  AC=52 OA=OC=AC2.
Radius =522 Area of a square is side2.
Area of square =AC2.
Area of square =52 Area of square =25 cm2 Area of circle =πr2.
Area of circle =3.14×(522)2 Area of circle =3.14×504 Area of circle =39.25cm2 Area of the shaded region = Area of circle - Area of square.
Area of the shaded region =39.25-25 Area of the shaded region =14.25 cm2 Hence, option 1 is correct.
