Question

Determine the area of the shaded region

Answer 1

61.76 ft^2

Explanation:

First find the area of the rectangle without the circle

A = l*w = 14*8 =112

Then find the area of the circle

The diameter is 8 so the radius is 8/2 =4

A = pi r^2 = 3.14 * 16 =50.24

The shaded region is the rectangle minus the circle

112-50.24 =61.76 ft^2
