A square is cut out of a circle whose diameter is approximately 14 feet What is the approximate area shaded region of the remaining portion of the circle in squ class=

Respuesta :

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

area if squre is πr^2

so...

[tex]\pi {r}^{2} = 3.14 \times 7 \times 7 = 153.86 {ft}^{2} [/tex]

r means radius and...radius is diameter/2

now we must subtract the area of the square

[tex] {a}^{2} = 10 \times 10 = 100 {ft}^{2} [/tex]

[tex]153.86 - 100 = 53.86 {ft}^{2} [/tex]

nearest answer is 50

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

r = 14/2 = 7 feet

Area of circle=πr²=22*7*7/7 = 22*7= 154 sq. feet

Area of square = side*side = 10*10 =100

Area of shaded region = Area of circle - Area of square

    =154 - 100 = 54 sq. feet ≈ 50 sq. feet
