Answer:

171.06 cm²

Explanation:

First let us find the area of the circle

Area = π r²

= π × 8 × 8

= π × 64

= 201.06 cm²

Now let us find the area of parallelogram

Area = Base × Height

= 6 cm × 5 cm

= 30 cm²

And now we have to find the area of the shape when the parallelogram is cut from it

For that, you have to subtract the area of the parallelogram from the area of the circle.

Let us solve now.

Area of the shape = Area of the circle - Area of the parallelogram

= 201.06 cm² - 30 cm²

= 171.06 cm²

Hope this helps you :-)

Let me know if you have any other questions :-)

Have a nice day !!
