Say you have small lego bricks (lets say 2 inch in length) and large lego bricks (lets say 3 inches in length) so you want to find out how many little legos will it take to equal 4 large ones, because they are smaller you need more to create the same length as the larger one, hints multiplying.

easiest way i can think of to help you out :)

Answer:

Part 1) The length of each side of square AQUA is $3.54\ cm$

Part 2) The area of the shaded region is $(486\pi-648)\ units^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1)

<em>step 1</em>

Find the radius of the circle S

The area of the circle is equal to

$A=\pi r^{2}$

we have

$A=25\pi\ cm^{2}$

substitute in the formula and solve for r

$25\pi=\pi r^{2}$

simplify

$25=r^{2}$

$r=5\ cm$

<em>step 2</em>

Find the length of each side of square SQUA

In the square SQUA

we have that

SQ=QU=UA=AS

$SU=r=5\ cm$

Let

x------> the length side of the square

Applying the Pythagoras Theorem

$5^{2}=x^{2} +x^{2}$

$5^{2}=2x^{2}$

$x^{2}=\frac{25}{2}\\ \\x=\sqrt{\frac{25}{2}}\ cm\\ \\ x=3.54\ cm$

Part 2) we know that

The area of the shaded region is equal to the area of the larger circle minus the area of the square plus the area of the smaller circle

<em>Find the area of the larger circle</em>

The area of the circle is equal to

$A=\pi r^{2}$

we have

$r=AB=18\ units$

substitute in the formula

$A=\pi (18)^{2}=324\pi\ units^{2}$

step 2

Find the length of each side of square BCDE

we have that

$AB=18\ units$

The diagonal DB is equal to

$DB=(2)18=36\ units$

Let

x------> the length side of the square BCDE

Applying the Pythagoras Theorem

$36^{2}=x^{2} +x^{2}$

$1,296=2x^{2}$

$648=x^{2}$

$x=\sqrt{648}\ units$

step 3

Find the area of the square BCDE

The area of the square is

$A=(\sqrt{648})^{2}=648\ units^{2}$

step 4

Find the area of the smaller circle

The area of the circle is equal to

$A=\pi r^{2}$

we have

$r=(\sqrt{648})/2\ units$

substitute in the formula

$A=\pi ((\sqrt{648})/2)^{2}=162\pi\ units^{2}$

step 5

Find the area of the shaded region

$324\pi\ units^{2}-648\ units^{2}+162\pi\ units^{2}=(486\pi-648)\ units^{2}$
