MCQ
Four circles each of radius a touch each other. The area between them is :
  • A
    $\frac{7}{6}\text{a}^2$
  • B
    $\frac{6}{7}\text{a}$
  • $\frac{6}{7}\text{a}^2$
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: C.
$\frac{6}{7}\text{a}^2$
Area of required region $=$ Area of square $- $ Area of $4$ quadrant
$\Rightarrow $ Area of required region $=2\text{(a)}^2-4\times\frac{1}{4}\times\frac{22}{7}\times\text{a}^2$
$=4\text{a}^2-\frac{22}{7}\text{a}^2$
$=\frac{6}{7}\text{a}^2\text{ sq.cm}$
