Question

Find the area of the shaded region. Round to the nearest tenth.

Given-the radius of the circle is 5 inches

Answer 1

Check the picture below.

if we just subtract the area of the circle from that total area of the square, what's leftover is the shaded area.

`\stackrel{ \textit{\LARGE Areas} }{\stackrel{square}{(10)(10)}~~ - ~~\stackrel{circle}{\pi (5)^2}}\implies 100-25\pi ~~ \approx ~~ \text{\LARGE 21.5}~in^2`
