Question

Find the area of the shaded region. Give your answers exactly (in terms of π) and rounded to the nearest hundredth.

Answer 1

area of rectangle = 60 x 20 = 1200
area of circle = πr^2 = π * 10^2 = 100π

3 circles = 100π x 3 = 300π

shaded area = 1200 - 300π = 300(4 -π)


--------------------------------

if you want to apply π = 3.14 then

shaded area = 1200 - 300π = 300(4 -3.14) = 257.52
