The radius of a circle is 5 cm . A chord of length (square root of 50 cm) Is drawn in the circle . Find the area if major segment

Given: The radius of the circle = 5cmAnd, the length of the chord = 50cmAs we know that area of the sector = θ360°×πr2 Here, AOB = 90°, in AOBSo, θ = 90° Area of the sector = θ360°×πr2=90°360°×227×5×5=27514cm2Now, Area of AOB= 12×Base ×Height=12×5×5=252cm2Area of minor segement=Area of the sector - Area of AOB=27514cm2-252cm2=275-17514=507cm2Area of major segement= Area of circle-Area of minor segement=227×5×5-507cm2=5007cm2
