If area of the circle = 105 sq. cm. and area of the minor segment = 30.75 sq. cm. Find the area of the major segment.

Solution:

Area of the circle = Area of major segment + Area of minor segment

∴ 105 = Area of major segment + 30.75

∴ 105 – 30.75 = Area of major segment

∴ 74.25 = Area of major segment

Ans. Area of major segment is 74.25 sq. cm.
