Answer:

r ≈ 4

Explanation:

circle = 360 degrees

360 / 90 = 4

let's call the area of triangle XYZ + the shaded area portion A

because ∠XYZ = 90°, and 360 / 90 = 4, A = 1/4th of the area

total area of circle = πr²

XY = YZ = radius

thus, as ∠XYZ = 90° and two sides are the same, this forms a 45-45-90 triangle, with base YZ and height XY (base/height are interchangeable here)

thus, area of triangle XYZ = r*r/2 = r²/2

area A = r²/2 + 4.64

4 * A = total area of circle

4(r²/2+4.64) = πr²

2r²+18.56 = πr²

subtract 2r² from both sides to put all the variables on one side

(π-2)r² = 18.56

divide both sides by (π-2) to isolate r²

18.56/(π-2) = r² ≈ 16.258

r ≈ 4.032 ≈ 4
