Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for corner shelf

Required

The area

The corner shelf is a quadrant with radius;

$r = 8.5in$

The area of a quadrant is:

$Area = \frac{\pi r^2}{4}$

So, the area of the corner shelf is:

$Area = \frac{\pi * 8.5^2}{4}$

$Area = \frac{\pi * 72.25}{4}$

$Area = \pi * 18.0625$

Take $\pi$ as 3.14

$Area = 3.14 * 18.0625$

$Area = 56.7$ -- approximated
