Question

PLEASE HELP ME ASAP!!!! A circle fits in a square with sides of 12 inches. What is the approximate area of the shaded region between the square and

the circle? (Use 3.14 for x and round to the nearest whole number.)
12 inches
12 inches
31 in?
68 in 2
108 in 2
125 in 2

Answer 1

Depending on the shaded area, it will be less than 113 in², so not the last option

Explanation:

Area of a circle is A= πr²

if it fits in 12 inch sides, 12 i the diameter and 6 is the radius

A= 3.14(6)²

A= 113 in²

Then, find what the shaded area is
