Question

Find the area of the shaded region. Round to the nearest tenth.

Given: the radius of the circle is 5 inches.

Answer 1

a = 21.5 in²

Explanation:

Area of square

a = s²

a = 10²

a = 100

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

Area of circle

a = πr²

a = π5²

a =π*25

a = 78.5398163397

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

Area shaded

a = square - circle

a = 100 - 78.5398163397

a = 21.4601836603

Rounded

a = 21.5 in²
