An umbrella has 8 ribs which are equally spaced. Assuming the umbrella to be a flat circle of radius 45 cm, find the area in cm2 between the two consecutive ribs of the umbrella. Take π=227
Radius = 45cm
8 ribs implies angle subtend between consecutive ribs
=3608=45∘ .
Area between consecutive ribs
=45360×π×452=795.22cm2
