Question

Find the area of the shaded regions. Give your answer as a completely simplified exact value in terms of π (no approximations). Thanks so much to whoever helps! <3

Answer 1

Answer:

$7\pi cm^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle is given by $A=\pi r^2$

For circle B, the radius is 3 cm, it has an area of $\pi *3^2=9\pi cm^2$

Circle D also has a radius of 1 cm. Its area is $\pi *1^2=\pi cm^2$

Circle P also has a radius of 1 cm and area $\pi*1^2=\pi cm^2$

The area of the shaded region is then $9\pi -\pi-\pi=7\pi cm^2$
