A fan has 3 equally spaced blades. The central dial has an area of 3π cm2. Length of each blade is (20-√3)cm. If a triangle is drawn from the tips of the blades, find its area.
Options:
A .  900 sq cm
B .  300 √3 sq cm
C .  900 sq cm
D .  400√3 sq units
Answer: Option B : B Ans: b) 300√2 sq cm Soln: Radius of the dial at the centre: √3ππ total length of the blade from the centre: (20-√3)+√3; = 20. Half of each side: 30 cos 30. = 10√3. Total length of each side: 20√3. Thus , area: (√34)(20√3)2. =300√2 sq cm
