Question

A farmer created a crop circle that is a square inside a circle. The square contains the crop of​ wheat, and the part outside the square is flat. The circle has a radius of 25​meters, and the square has a side length of 35 meters. What is the area of the flat region within this crop​ circle? Use 3.14.

Answer 1

738.75m^2

Explanation:

this problem is on the mensuration of flat shapes.

first, we need to solve for the area of the circle

area of circle= πr^2

area of circle= 3.142*25^2

area of circle= 3.142*625

area of circle= 1963.75m^2

the area of the square

area of square= l^2

area of square= 35^2

area of square= 1225m^2

the area of the flat region within this crop​ circle is

area of circle-area of square

= 1963.75-1225

=738.75m^2
