Correct Answer: $\frac{\pi }{2}-1$
Solution :
Given: The side of the square = 1 cm The area of the square = $\operatorname{(side)^2}$ $A_{\text{square}}= 1$ cm2 The radius of each circle = 1 cm The angle of the sector = $\frac{\pi}{2}$ The area of the sector = $\frac{\theta}{360^{\circ}}×\pi r^2$ $ A_{\text{sector}} = \frac{90^{\circ}}{360^{\circ}}×\pi (1)^2 = \frac{\pi}{4} $ cm2 The area of the portion that is common to the two circles, $2A_{\text{sector}} - A_{\text{square}} = \frac{2\pi}{4} - 1 =\frac{\pi}{2} - 1$. Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{\pi}{2} - 1$.
