semi circle ratio

Question

explain ?

FN · Answer

I get 1/2

so the radius of the big circle is r, then white circle will have r=r/2

we have really 2 small white circles..

so pi*2*(r/2)^2 / pir^2=1/2

scthakur · Answer

The question asks for the ration of white area to the shaded area. Hence, this will be 1/1.

phdizzle · Answer

total area: pi*RS^2/4
white region area: 4*pi*RS^2/16 * 1/2 (semicircles)
dark region area=total-white=pi*RS^2=pi*RS^2/8

ratio white/dark = 1

I agree...damn what is it with my careless mistakes...grrr

how do i improve my focus????

abohassan · Answer

the solution is 1/1

the area of the white area = 2 circle with radius = 1/2 r
area ( White ) = 1/2 * ( r^2 * Pi )

Area of black = Area of the Big circle - Area of White area
Area of black = 1/2 * ( r^2 * Pi )

the ratio is clear 1/2

the solution is ( B )
