Question

Area addition and subtraction

Answer 1

Answer:Area of the shaded region is 73.6 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The circle is divided into two sectors. The Smaller sector contains the triangle. The angle that the smaller sector subtends at the center of the circle is 80 degrees. Since the total angle at the center of the circle is 360 degrees, it means that the angle that the larger sector subtends at the center would be 360 - 80 = 280 degrees

Area of a sector is expressed as

Area of sector = #/360 × πr^2

# = 280

r = 5 cm

Area of sector = 280/360 × 3.14 × 5^2

Area of sector = 61.06 cm^2

Area of the triangle is expressed as

1/2bh = 1/2 × 5 × 5 = 12.5

Area of the shaded region = 61.06 +

12.5 = 73.6
