Do you know how to find the radius of the circle in your picture?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no

is the answer : A= 4pi - 8

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

From the diagram we can see that the diagonal is equal to 2xradius

OpenStudy (mathteacher1729):

Hint: You must use pythag. theorem.

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

Hence \[πr^2-s^2\] \[=π(2)^2-{2√2}^2\] \[=4π-8\]
