Question

How do I do this and what’s the answer

Answer 1

The area of the four curved surfaces is the area of one circle with a radius of 4 cm

Area = PI * radius^2

Area = PI * 4 ^ 2

Area = PI * 16 = 50.26548245744 sq cm

Area of entire square = 8 * 8 = 64 sq cm

Area of yellow region = 64 - 50.265 sq cm =

= 13.735 = 13.7 sq cm (rounded to nearest tenth)

Explanation:

Answer 2

Area of the yellow part = 13.76

Explanation:

Remark

Basically you have 4 quarter circles (which will make up the area of 1 circle) which you then have to subtract from the area of the square. Use pi = 3.14 for the circle.

Area of the square

A = s^2

A = 8^2

A = 64

Area of the 4 quarter circles.

Area = 4* (1/4) * Pi * r^2

r = 4 (1/2 of the square's side)

Area = 4*(1/4) * pi * 4^2

Area = pi * 4^2

Area = 16 * pi

Area of the yellow part

Area of the yellow part = Area of the square - Area of the 4 quarter circles.

Area of the yellow part = 64 - 16*pi This is a possible answer.

Area of the yellow part = 64 - 50.24

Area of the yellow part = 13.76 This is the answer I'd try first.
