Answer: the answer is 21.5 inches squared

Explanation:

Area of the square: 10x10 which is 100

Then area of the circle: Pi x radius squared

So Pi x 5 squared which is 78.54 (to nearest 2dp)

Then finally, subtract to get the shaded region

So 100-78.54= 21.46

However they want this to the nearest tenth so it would be 21.5
