Answer:
A) 226.98 in^2
B) 120 in^2
C) 106.98 in^2
Explanation:
A) The diagonal of the rectangle is the diameter of the circle. The area can be found using the formula ...
A = (π/4)d^2
A = (π/4)(17 in)^2 = 72.25π in^2 ≈ 226.98 in^2
__
B) The area of the rectangle is the product of its length and width:
A = LW
A = (15 in)(8 in) = 120 in^2
__
C) The shaded area is the difference between the circle area and the rectangle area:
shaded area = (226.98 in^2) -(120 in^2) = 106.98 in^2
