Question

Find the area of the shaded segment. Round your answer to the nearest tenth. Please include units in your answer.

Answer 1

Answer: 56

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's organise our information :

• the radius of the circle is r=14 cm
• we can get the area of the shaded by substracting the area of that triangle from that quarter

The area of the cercle's quarter area is :

• A= 14²×π*(1/4) = 49π cm²

The area of the triangle is :

• A=14²*(1/2)=98

NOw the area of the shaded segment :

• A=49π-98= 55.98 ≈ 56
