Question

Calculate the area of the shaded region

Answer 1

Answer:

48π or 150.72

Step-by-step explanation:

The radius of the big circle is 8.

We can use that to find the area of the big circle.

Area is πr^2

π(8)^2

64π

Now, we can find the area of the small circle.

The diameter of that is 8, meaning the radius is 4.

πr^2

π(4)^2

16π

Now we subtract the area of the small circle from the area of the big circle to get the area of the shaded region.

64π-16π=48π

As a decimal: 48*3.14=150.72
