in a circular park with a radius of 250 m there are 7 lamps whose bases are circles with a radius of 1m. The entire area of the park has grass with the exception of the bases of the lamps. Calculate the lawn area.

Answer:

Area of the lawn = 62493π m^2

Explanation:

The total area of the circular park is given by the formula: A = πr^2

Where A is the area and r is the radius.

So, the total area of the park

= π(250m)^2

= 62500π m^2

The area of one lamp base is given by the formula: A = πr^2

Substituting the given radius of 1m, we find:

The area of one lamp base = π(1m)^2

= π m^2

As there are 7 lamps, the total area of the bases of the lamps is:

7 * π m^2

Finally, to find the lawn area, we subtract the area of the bases of the lamps from the total area of the park:

Lawn area = total area of the park - area of bases of the lamps

= 62500π m^2 - 7π m^2

= (62500 - 7)π m^2

= 62493π m^2

Therefore, the lawn area is approximately 62493π square meters.
