2.5m--->250cm
Diameter of circle =>250cm

Radius of circle =>125 cm

Area of circle=>3.14 x (125x125) = 49062.5cm

49062.5cm equals to 490.625m

Area of square=> 2.5 x2.5 = 6.25

490.625-6.25= 484.375m

Rounded to nearest hundreth,
484.375m~484.38m

Final.answer : 484.38m squared

Based on the diagram shown above, the area of the shaded region rounded to the nearest hundredth is 1.34 square meter.

In Mathematics and Euclidean Geometry, the area of a square can be calculated by using this formula;

A =
s^2

Where:

  • A is the area of a square.
  • s is the side length of a square.

By substituting the given side lengths into the formula, we have;

Area of square, A = 2.5 × 2.5

Area of square, A = 6.25 square meters.

In Mathematics and Geometry, the area of a circle can be calculated by using this formula:

Area of circle = π
r^2

Where:

r represents the radius of a circle.

By substituting, we have;

Radius of circle = diameter/2 = 2.5/2

Radius of circle = 1.25 m.

Area of circle = π ×
1.25^2

Area of circle ≈ 4.91 square meters.

Area of the shaded region = Area of square - Area of circle

Area of the shaded region = 6.25 - 4.91

Area of the shaded region = 1.34 square meter.
