area of shaded portion = 49.5 yd²

____________________

Explanation:

radius of circle = 5 yd ------ ( given )

height of triangle = 16 yd --- ( given )

base of triangle = 16 yd ----- ( given )

area of triangle = 1/2 × base × height

= 1/2 × 16 × 16

= 128 yd²

area of circle = π × radius²

= 3.14 × 5 × 5 --- ( π = 3.14 )

= 78.5 yd²

---------------------------------------

area of shaded portion = area of triangle - area of circle

area of shaded portion= 128 yd²-78.5 yd²

area of shaded portion = 49.5 yd²
