tried pythagoras theorem to get other side of rectangle ?
hartnn (hartnn):
one side of rect is 6 and radius of circle is 5, so u only need other side of rect to get the area of shaded region.....which u get by pythagoras theorem
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh ok so i do the pythagoras theorem 3^2+b^2=5^2
9+b=25
25-9=16 suqare root is 4
OpenStudy (anonymous):
5^2=3^2+p^2
25-9=p^2
p=4
area of shaded region=area of circle - area of rectangel
