  1. Given,

    Side of the square = 21 cm = OA

    Area of the square = OA2 = 212 = 441 cm2

    Diagonal of the square OB = √2 OA = 21√2 cm

    And,

    The diagonal of the square is equal to the radius of the circle, r = 21√2 cm

    So, the area of the quadrant = ¼ πr2 = ¼ (22/7)(21√2)2 = 693 cm2

    Thus,

    The area of the shaded region = Area of the quadrant – Area of the square

    = 693 – 441

    = 252 cm2
