CAT 2025 Slot 1QA Question 12

CirclesMedium

In a circle with center CC and radius 62 cm,PQ6 \sqrt{2} \mathrm{~cm}, P Q and SRS R are two parallel chords separated by one of the diameters. If PQC=45\angle P Q C=45^{\circ}, and the ratio of the perpendicular distance of PQP Q and SRS R from CC is 3:23: 2, then the area, in sq. cm , of the quadrilateral PQRSP Q R S is

Answer & solution

Correct answer: \(20(3+\sqrt{14})\)

  • A
    4(3+14)4(3+\sqrt{14})
  • B
    20(32+7)20(3 \sqrt{2}+\sqrt{7})
  • 20(3+14)20(3+\sqrt{14})
  • D
    4(32+7)4(3 \sqrt{2}+\sqrt{7})
