Answer:

Approximately, 6.283..

Explanation:

First calculate the area of the whole circle

We have radius(r)=4 cm

Area of circle(a)=pir^2

=pi×(4)^2

=pi×16

=Approximately,50.265......

A cirlce has a total of 360 degrees

Therefore,we can conclude 360 degrees=50.265...

or,1 degree=50.265/360

1 degree=Approximately,0.139

Now,

Area for the shaded region = Area of 45 degree

=0.139×45=Approximately,6.283.....

Therefore,the area of the shaded region is approximately,6.283....
