Answer:
Shaded Area = 7.722 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
Given.
Side of the square = 6cm
π = 3.142
Required:
Area of shaded region
First, the area of the square needs to be calculated.
Area of a square = Length * Length
Area = 6cm * 6cm
Area = 36cm²
Then we calculate the area of the circle.
To calculate this, we need to get the radius of the circle.
If the length of the sides of the square is 6 cm, then the diameter of the square is also 6 cm.
Now that we have the diameter, the radius can be calculated.
Radius, R = ½D (where R and D represent radius and diameter, respectively)
So,
R = ½ * 6 cm
R = 3cm
Area of a circle = πr²
Area = 3.142 * 3²
Are = 3.142 * 9
Area = 28.278 cm²
The shaded area is then calculated by subtracting the area of the circle from the area of the square.
Shaded Area = Area of Square - Area of Circle
Shaded Area = 36cm² - 28.278cm²
Shaded Area = 7.722cm²
Hence, the shaded area 7.722 cm²
