The measure of the minor arc of a circle is 1/11 of the measure of the corresponding major arc. If the radius of the circle is 7 cm, find the area of the minor segment.

let minor arc be x
length of arc=​​theta/360*2pi*r
x=theta/360*2pi*r
let major arc=11x
then 11x=(360-theta)/360*2pi*r
if u solve for theta u will get theta=30
then find area of minor segment by subtracting area of that sector-area of the triangle
