    The figure given is made up of a circle and 3 identical semicircles. 0 is the centre of the circle and XY is the diameter of the circle. Given that XY is 28 cm, find the perimeter of the shaded part of the figure. (Use \[\pi =\frac{22}{7}\].)

    A)  67 cm                  

    B)  50 cm

    C)  80 cm  

    D)         15 cm

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     Radius of circle\[=\text{28 cm}\div \text{2}=\text{14 cm}\] Area of circle\[=\frac{22}{7}\times 14cm\times 14\,cm\]                                 \[=\text{ 616 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}\] Radius of semicircle \[=\text{14 cm}\div \text{2}=\text{7 cm}\] \[\therefore \] Shaded area\[=3\times \frac{1}{2}\times \frac{22}{7}\times 7\times 7=231\,c{{m}^{2}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[\text{616 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}-\text{ 231 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ }=\text{ 385 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}\] Perimeter of shaded part of figure \[=7+7+3\times \left( \frac{1}{2}\times \frac{22}{7}\times 14 \right)\] \[=14\,cm+66\,cm=80\,cm\]
