Answer:
13.8 sq.cm
Explanation:
Area of shaded region = area of square - area of 4 quater circles
(4 quater circles=1 circle)
= area of square - area of one circle
= s^2 - πr^2
= 8×8 - 3.14 × 4×4 (r = 4cm because radius is half of the side of square)
= 64 - 3.14 ×16
= 64 - 50.24
= 13.76
Nearest tenth of 13.76 is 13.8
