Hi there!

Length of the rope forms the radius of the sector of the area where the cow can graze.

Original radius (r) = 6 m

Increased radius = 6 + 5.5 = 11.5 m

Increase in area of the field graze by the cow = (90°/360°) x (22/7) x (11.5² - 6²)

= 1/4 x 22/7 x (132.25 - 36)

= 1/4 x 22/7 x 96.25

= 75.625 m²

Cheers!
