Answer:
21.46 cm²
Explanation:
because the question want only for the SHADED REGION but NOT AREA OF THE SQUARE
(if we just multiply 10x10. you will get the area of a square which is hundered)
To find the shaded region:
1. area of a circle is πr² (we have 4 circle there)
2. Find the area of all circle
# how do we know the radius?
- half of 10 is 5
- 5 is the diameter of each circle
- the radius is half of 5 which is 2.5
- π(2.5)² = 25/4π (area of 1 circle)
3. since we have 4 circle then, 25/4π x 4 = 25π
4. the area of the square is 100cm²
5. we want the shaded region so we have to minus the area of the circle
6. 100 - 25π (use your calculator to find the answer)
answer should be 21.46 cm²
