Find the area of a quadrant of a circle whose circumference is 44 cm.

Given:

Circumference of circle = 44 cm


Let the radius of the circle be ‘r’ cm


Circumference of circle = 2πr


44 = 2πr


= × r


r = 22 × = 7 cm


Now, Area of quadrant = × πr2


= × × 7 × 7


= = = 38.5 cm2


Hence, the area of the quadrant is 38.5 cm2.
