In Fig. 4, ABCD is a trapezium with AB || DC and BCD = 30°. If BGEC is a sector of a circle with center C and AB = BC = 7 cm, DE = 4 cm and BF = 3.5 cm, then find the area of the shaded region (use ).


(Fig. 4)


.


Given:


AB = BC = 7 cm


DE = 4 cm


DF = 3.5 cm


CD = DE + EC = 11 cm



Area of Trapezium ABCD = × Sum of Parallel Sides × Height


Area of Trapezium ABCD =


Area of shaded region = Area of Trapezium ABCD - Area of sector CBE


Answer: Area of Shaded region = 18.67 cm2
