Solution
1) Find the area of triangle with central angle= pi/3
Its an isosceles triangle :
Area = (1/2)*16*16sin60 = 128sin60 = 110.85
Areaof major sector = area of circle - area of sector with angle 60 deg
= pi(16)^2 - pi*(60/360)*16^2
= pi16^2[ 1 - 1/6]
= pi*16^2(5/6)
= 670.20
Area of pink region: = 670.20 + 110.85 = 781.05 = 781.1 units
2) First find the area of isosceles triangle
Area of triangle = (1/2)*4*4*sin120 = 6.93
Now to find the shaded are = Area of sector with angle 120 - area of triangle
= (120/360)*pi*4^2 - 6.93
= 9.825 = 9.83 units
