Solution

The correct option is A 282.6 $c m^{2}$
Given:
Area of circle = $314$ $c m^{2}$
Area of minor sector = $31.4$ $c m^{2}$
Area of major sector = Area of a circle - Area of minor sector
= $314 - 31.4 c m^{2}$
= $282.6$ $c m^{2}$

The area of a circle is 314 sq. cm and area of its minor sector is 31.4 sq. cm. Find the area of its major sector.

The correct option is A 282.6 cm2Given: Area of circle = 314cm2Area of minor sector = 31.4cm2Area of major sector = Area of a circle - Area of minor sector= 314−31.4cm2= 282.6 cm2

The correct option is A 282.6 $c m^{2}$
Given:
Area of circle = $314$ $c m^{2}$
Area of minor sector = $31.4$ $c m^{2}$
Area of major sector = Area of a circle - Area of minor sector
= $314 - 31.4 c m^{2}$
= $282.6$ $c m^{2}$
