Show SolutionHide Solution
Area of shaded region $= \frac{95}{360} \times \frac{22}{7} \times (5)^2 + \frac{50}{360} \times \frac{22}{7} \times (5)^2 + \frac{35}{360} \times \frac{22}{7} \times (5)^2$
$= \frac{(95+50+35)}{360} \times \frac{22}{7} \times (5)^2$
$= \frac{180}{360} \times \frac{22}{7} \times (5)^2$
$= \frac{275}{7}$ cm$^2$ or $39.29$ cm$^2$ approx.
