A cow is tied with a rope of 14 m at the corner of a rectangular field of dimensions 20m × 16m. Find the area of the field in which the cow can graze.

Answers (1)

\because Area of circle =\pi r^{2}

According to question

In the figure, we see that the area grazed by cows is in the form of the fourth part of a circle.

 Hence, the area grazes by cows = \frac{\theta}{360^{\circ}}\times \pi r^{2}        here \theta=90^{\circ}

=\frac{1}{4} \times \pi r^{2}              (Because the Area of a circle \pi r^{2})

=\frac{1}{4} \times \frac{22}{7}\times 14 \times 14

=11 \times 14=154 m^{2}
