Answer:
192.5 m²
Explanation:
The formula for calculating the area if a circle
= πr²
Find the area of the larger circle first, then subtract the area of the smaller circle.
The area of the larger circle
= π×(21÷2)²
= 346.4 m² (rounded to the nearest tenth)
The radius of the smaller circle
= 21÷2 - 3.5
= 7 m
The area of the smaller circle
= π×7²
= 153.9 m² (rounded to the nearest tenth)
The area of the shaded region
= 346.4 - 153.9
= 192.5 m²
