Interschool Rangoli Competition was organized by one of the reputed schools of Odissa. The theme of the Rangoli Competition was Diwali celebrations where students were supposed to make mathematical designs. Students from various schools participated and made beautiful Rangoli designs. One such design is given below.
Rangoli is in the shape of square marked as ABCD, side of square being 40 cm. At each corner of a square, a quadrant of circle of radius 10 cm is drawn (in which diyas are kept). Also a circle of diameter 20 cm is drawn inside the square.

(ii) Find the area of the circle. (1)
(iii) If the circle and the four quadrants are cut off from the square ABCD and removed, then find the area of remaining portion of square ABCD. (2)
OR (iii) Find the combined area of 4 quadrants and the circle, removed. (2)

Blood group describes the type of blood a person has. It is a classification of blood based on the presence or absence of inherited antigenic substances on the surface of red blood cells. Blood types predict whether a serious reaction will occur in a blood transfusion.
In a sample of 50 people, 21 had type O blood, 22 had type A, 5 had type B and rest had type AB blood group.
Based on the above, answer the following questions :
(i) What is the probability that a person chosen at random had type O blood ? (1)
(ii) What is the probability that a person chosen at random had type AB blood group ? (1)
(iii) What is the probability that a person chosen at random had neither type A nor type B blood group ? (2)
OR (iii) What is the probability that person chosen at random had either type A or type B or type O blood group ? (2)
