option b is correct

Question:

ABCD is a square of side a cm. AB, BC, CD and AD all are the chords of circles with equal radii each. If the chords subtends an angle of 120° at their respective centres, find the total area of the given figure, where arcs are the parts of the circles:



Options:
A) \( \left [ a^2 +4\left ( \cfrac {\pi a^2}{9 }-\cfrac{a^2}{3\sqrt[]{2}} \right ) \right ]\)
B) \( \left [ a^2 +4\left ( \cfrac {\pi a^2}{9 }-\cfrac{a^2}{4\sqrt[]{3}} \right ) \right ]\)
C) \(\big[ 9a^2 -4\pi + 3\sqrt[]{3a^2}\big]\)
D) None of these
Solution:
Ans: (d) 


In \(\Delta\)OAB, from 30 - 60 - 90 theorem

\(OC=\cfrac{a}{2\sqrt[]{3}}\)

\(OA=\cfrac{a}{\sqrt[]{3}}\)

Area of sector OAB = \(\cfrac{120}{360}\times \pi \left ( \cfrac{a}{\sqrt[]{3}} \right )^2\) = \(\cfrac{\pi a^2}{9}\)

Area of section AB = \(\left ( \cfrac{\pi a^2}{9}-\cfrac{a^2}{2\sqrt[]{3}} \right )\)

Hence area of fig. = 4 \(\left ( \cfrac{\pi a^2}{9}-\cfrac{a^2}{2\sqrt[]{3}} \right )+a^2\)
