The figure above shows four circles with diameters OA, OB, OC and OD inscribed in a circle O.
Quantity A |
Quantity B |
Ratio of Areas of two shaded regions |
1 |
A. The quantity in Column A is greater.
B. The quantity in Column B is greater.
C. The two quantities are equal.
D. The relationship cannot be determined from the information given
Let the radius of smaller circles be \(r\)
Then, the radius of circle O is \(2r\)
Now, Area of circle O = Area of orange region + 4(Area of smaller circles) - Area of blue region
\(π(2r)^2\) = Area of orange region + 4(\(πr^2\)) - Area of blue region
\(4πr^2 - 4πr^2\) = Area of orange region - Area of blue region
i.e. Area of orange region = Area of blue region
Col. A: 1
Col. B: 1
Col. A = Col. B
Hence, option C
