Question

Calculate the area of the shaded region shown below:​

Answer 1

Answer:

Given that ;

Area of the Shaded Region ( A ) = ?

Area of the Shaded Region

= Area of the Square - Area of the Circle

Square :

Side of the Square ( s ) = 10cm

Area of the Square ( A ) = a²

A = 10 × 10

A = 100cm²

Hence ;

Area of the Square ( A ) = 100cm²

Circle :

Radius of the Circle ( r ) = 3.5cm

Area of the Circle ( A ) = π r²

A = 3.14 × 3.5 × 3.5

A = 38.465 cm²

Hence ;

Area of the Circle ( A ) = 38.465 cm²

Area of the Shaded Region :

Area of the Square - Circle

100 cm² - 38.465 cm²

61.535 cm²

Hence ;

Area of the Shaded Region = 61.535 cm²
