Question

In the diagram below, the radii of the two concentric circles are 3 centimeters and 7 centimeters, respectively.

Answer 1

Answer:

125.6 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the shaded region = area of larger circle - area of the smaller circle

Area of the smaller circle = πr²

π = 3.14, r = 3 cm

Area of smaller circle = 3.14*3² = 3.14*9 = 28.26 cm²

Area of larger circle = πr²

π = 3.14, r = 7

Area of larger circle = 3.14*7² = 3.14*49 = 153.86 cm²

Area of the shaded region = 153.86 - 28.26 = 125.6 cm²
