 Area of the shaded region = Area of square of side
 6cm – 4 × a right angled sector= 36 - 4 × π × 3² 4 
 = 36 - 9π = 9(4 - π)sq. cm.Correct Option: BUsing Rule 10 and 17,  
 Area of the shaded region = Area of square of side
 6cm – 4 × a right angled sector= 36 - 4 × π × 3² 4 
 = 36 - 9π = 9(4 - π)sq. cm.
-  The area of a circle is increased by 22 cm² when its radius is increased by 1 cm. The original radius of the circle is

 π(r + 1)² – πr² = 22
 ⇒ π(r² + 2r + l - r²) = 22
 ⇒ 2πr + π = 22⇒ 22 (2r + 1) = 22 7 
 ⇒ 2r + 1 = 7
 ⇒ 2r = 6
 ⇒ r = 3 cm.Correct Option: AUsing Rule 14, 
 π(r + 1)² – πr² = 22
 ⇒ π(r² + 2r + l - r²) = 22
 ⇒ 2πr + π = 22⇒ 22 (2r + 1) = 22 7 
 ⇒ 2r + 1 = 7
 ⇒ 2r = 6
 ⇒ r = 3 cm.
