Question

Circle O has a radius of 12.

Find the area of the shaded region rounded to the nearest whole number.

Answer 1

~ 340

Explanation:

A = pi * r^2

The big circle is r1 = 12cm so the small r2=6cm

A= A1 - A2 = (pi * r1^2)-( pi*r2^2) = 339,29 ~ 340 square cm

If the radius of the small circle is 12cm then: r1 = 24cm and r2 = 12cm and calculate it the same way
