Required area of shaded portion
= Area of square ABCD - 4 × area of one quadrant

Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
We can simplify this equation and find the value of k.
k ÷ 2 + 1 - 1k = -2k
k ÷ 2 + 1 = -k
k + 1 = -2k
1 = -3k
k = -1/3
Cosecant = hypotenuse / opposite side ( that is 1 / sine)
csc C = AC / 8
AC = sqrt (6^2 + 8^2) = sqrt 100 = 10
so cosecant of C is 10/8 = 1.25
