9. In an arithmetic progression the sum of first four terms is 20 and the
sum of first three terms is 12. Then find the fourth term of the
arithmetic progression.
Solution : let four terms be a, a+d, a+2d and a+3d.
According to question, a+a+d+a+2d+a+3d= 20 and a+a+d+a+2d= 12

33. In the figure ABCD is a square of side 14cm with Centre A,B,C and D four circles
are drawn such that each circle touch externally two of the remaining three
circles as shown in the figure. Find the area of the shaded region.

Solution:
We use the concepts of areas of circles and squares to solve the problem.
Since the circles are touching each other externally, visually it is clear that
the radius of each circle, r = 1/2 × (side of the square)
Also, ABCD being a square all angles are of measure 90°. Therefore, all sectors are
equal as they have the same radii and angle.
∴ The angle of each sector (θ) = 90° [Since it is a part of a square]
∴ Area of each sector = θ/360° × πr2
= 90°/360° × πr2= πr2/4
Area of each of the 4 sectors is equal as each sector subtends an angle of 90° at the
center of a circle with radius, r = 1/2 × 14 cm = 7 cm
= 1/4 × 22/7 × 7 cm × 7 cm= 77/2 cm2
Area of shaded region = Area of square - 4 × Area of each sector
= (14)² cm2 - 4 × 77/2 cm2
= 196 cm2 - 154 cm2= 42 cm2
