Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The area to be resurfaced is the area of the
whole circle including garden and lanes minus
the area of the garden.
Area of a circle is (pi)r2
radius of garden is (1/2)diameter = 8 m
Garden area: (pi)82 = 64(pi) m2
Diameter of garden plus traffic lanes is
16 + 2(6) because we add 6 m to both sides
of the diameter of the garden.
Full diameter = 16+12 = 28 m
Full radius = 28/2 = 14 m
Full area: (pi)142 = 196(pi) m2
Area to be resurfaced:
196(pi) - 64(pi) = 132(pi) m2 ≅ 415 m2
