Question

What is the approximate area of the shaded region?

Answer 1

7 x 7 = 49 area of square.

 The radius of the circle is half the diameter.   7 cm/2 = 3.5 

  A = 3.14 × 3.5 cm × 3.5 cm = 38.465

Finale step.  Subtract the area of the circle from the area of the square.                     

49 cm^2 −38.465 cm^2 = 10.535 or round to 10.54 cm^2

D. 10.54
