In the figure, a semicircle with its diameter on the hypotenuse of a right angled triangle is shown touching the remaining sides of a triangle. The parts of the hypotenuse made by the centre of the semicircle have lengths 15 cm and 20 cm respectively. Find the radius of the semicircle. (Construction : Join OD and OE)

Answer»

ong>Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length shown in above diagram be T.

The power of CIRCLE T

2

=(15−R)(15+R)

From similar triangles (radius / hypotenuse) of right SIDE right angled

triangle =

R

T

=

20

15

=

3

Solving R=12 T=9

Arc length in quarter circle =
