  • question_answer
    At each comer of a triangular field of sides 26 m, 28 m and 30 m a cow is tethered by a rope of length of 7 m. The area (in \[{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}\]) ungrazed by the cow is

    A) 336      

    B)  259

    C)  154

    D)  77

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Area grazed by all cows \[=\frac{180{}^\circ }{360{}^\circ }\pi {{r}^{2}}=\frac{\pi {{r}^{2}}}{2}\] \[=\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{22}{7}\times 7\times 7=77\,\,\text{sq}\,\,\text{m}\] Semi-perimeter of triangular field (s) \[=\frac{26+28+30}{2}=42\,\,\text{m}\] \[\therefore \]Area of the field \[=\sqrt{s\,\,(s-a)(s-b)s-c)}\] \[=\sqrt{42\,\,(42-26)(42-28)(42-30)}\] \[=\sqrt{42\times 16\times 14\times 12}=336\,\,\text{sq}\,\,\text{m}\] \[\therefore \]Area ungrazed by the cows \[=336-77=259\,\,\text{sq}\,\,\text{m}\]
