your options are Put the point of the compass on point B and the pencil point on point C. With the compass point still on B, draw two arcs that intersects the circle with center A.
Use a straightedge to join the four points where the circles intersect.
Draw and label the points where the circles with centers A and B intersect and where the circles with centers A and C intersect.
Put the point of the compass on point B and the pencil point on point C. Using this compass width, put the compass point on A and draw another circle.
It would be 3 pounds. A pound is 16 oz so 48 divided by 16 would be 3 lbs

Area of Composite Shapes</h2>
To find the area of composite shapes, we can break the bigger shape down into small, simpler shapes, and find the sum of their areas.
For this triangle, we will need to know the formula to find the area of a triangle:

<h2>Solving the Question</h2>
The given shape can be seen as one large triangle with a little triangle cut out of it. To find the shaded region, we can:
- Find the area of the large triangle
- Find the area of the little triangle
- Subtract the area of the little triangle from the large triangle
<h3>Area of the Large Triangle</h3>

⇒ Plug in the values given for the base and height:

<h3>Area of the Small Triangle</h3>

⇒ Plug in the values given for the base and height:

<h3>Subtract the Area of the Small Triangle from the Area of the Large Triangle</h3>

<h2>Answer</h2>
The area of the shaded region is
