a - b = 10

a + b = 31

(a - b) + (a + b) = 10 + 31

2a = 41

a = 41/2

41/2 - b = 10

b = 21/2

3a - 2b = 3(41/2) - 2(21/2) = 81/2

Tema [17]

Answer:

Option B. $212.1\ cm^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the central angle of the shaded sector

Remember that the diameter divide the circle into two equal parts ( 180 degrees each part)

Let

x -----> the measure of the central angle of the shaded sector

∠x+72°=180°

∠x=180°-72°=108°

step 2

Find the area of the circle

The area of the circle is

$A=\pi r^{2}$

we have

$r=15\ cm$

assume

$\pi=3.1416$

substitute

$A=(3.1416)(15)^{2}$

$A=706.86\ cm^{2}$

step 3

Find the area of the shaded sector

Remember that the area of the complete circle subtends a central angle of 360 degrees

by proportion find the area of a sector by a central angle of 108 degrees

$\frac{706.86}{360}=\frac{x}{108}\\ \\x=706.86*108/360\\ \\x=212.1\ cm^{2}$
