Radius of circle = a 2√3 = 24 = 4√3 cm 2√3
∴ Area of circle = π (4√3)²
= 48π sq. cm.= 48 × 22 sq. cm 7
= 150.86 sq. cm.Area of ∆ABC = √3 × 24 × 24 sq. cm 4
= 144 × 1.732
= 249.408 sq. cm.
∴ Area of the shaded region
= (249.408 – 150.86) sq. cm.
= 98.548 sq. cm.Correct Option: D

In-radius = Area Semi - perimeter ⇒ 4 = 34 Semi - perimeter ⇒ Semi - perimeter = 34 = 8.5 4
∴ Perimeter of triangle = (8.5 × 2) cm = 17 cmCorrect Option: B
In-radius = Area Semi - perimeter ⇒ 4 = 34 Semi - perimeter ⇒ Semi - perimeter = 34 = 8.5 4
∴ Perimeter of triangle = (8.5 × 2) cm = 17 cm

AP is the median at BC.
∴ Area of ∆ABP = Area of ∆APC
Again, 2AQ = QB∴ Area of ∆APQ = 1 Area of ∆ABP 3 ∴ Area of ∆APQ = 1 Area of ∆ABC 6 = 1 × 10.8 sq. cm 6
= 1.8 sq.cm.Correct Option: D

According to the question,
π × 12² = 2πr²
⇒ 2r² = 12 × 12⇒ r² = 12 × 12 = 72 2
⇒ r = √72 = 6√2 cm.Correct Option: C
