Lol, How do I change it?

mertsj · Answer

I think by going into your profile.

I don't see how to change my username, only first name and last name.

Maybe you can't.  I don't really know.

Did you draw that picture or copy it from your book?

anonymous · Answer

HOLD ON I GOT IT!!! I cut it into two semi circles, whose diameter would measure 16, then find the area of the circle which is pi64, then the area of the rectangle and so on. I think I figured it out lol
