Question

Find the area of the shaded region. Help please!

Answer 1

`\textit{area of a sector of a circle}\\\\ A=\cfrac{\theta \pi r^2}{360} ~~ \begin{cases} r=radius\\ \theta =\stackrel{degrees}{angle}\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ r=10\\ \theta =85 \end{cases}\implies \begin{array}{llll} A=\cfrac{(85)\pi (10)^2}{360} \\\\\\ A=\cfrac{425\pi }{18}\implies A\approx 74.18~cm^2 \end{array}`
