Answer :
The figure is given as:
Since the lawn is a square, ∴ the sides PQ = QR = SR = SP = 42 m.
Also, let OR = OP = x being the radius of the circle.
Now, the diagonal PR = OR + OP = x + x = 2x.
Applying the Pythagoras theorem in ΔPRQ, we get,
(PR)2 = (RQ)2 + (PQ)2
⇒ (2x)2 = (42)2 + (42)2
⇒ 4x2 = 2× (42)2
⇒ x2 = 882
⇒ x = √882 = 21√2 m.
Now, Area of the two flower beds = 2× {Area of the segment of circle with centre angle 90°)
⇒ Area
⇒
⇒ A = 2{ 693 – 441} = 504 m2
∴ Area of the flowers beds is 504 m2
