Question

Find the area of the ring-the shaded region

Answer 1

The area of the (ring) - the shaded region is 75.36 in²

Solution:

The value of π = 3.14

Radius of the inner circle = 5 in

Area of the inner circle = πr²

                                       = π × 5²

Area of the inner circle = 25π

Radius of the outer circle = (5 + 2) = 7 in

Area of the outer circle = πr²

                                       = π × 7²

Area of the outer circle = 49π

Area of the shaded ring = Area of the outer circle – Area of the inner circle

                                        = 49π – 25π

                                        = 24π

                                        = 24 × 3.14

                                        = 75.36 in²

The area of the (ring) - the shaded region is 75.36 in².
