Do you know how to find the area? o:

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

Firts find the area of the whole circle, so you have A = pi r^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3.14 and 12 squared right?

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then what? o:

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

then find the area of the circle without the black portion, so now you have: r= 9

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so, 3.14 * 9 right?

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

then subtract both and the difference would be the area of the black ring

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got 28.26

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

no, the area would be A = 9^2 x 3.14

OpenStudy (anonymous):

254.34

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

right, and what did you get for the whole circle A =12^2 x 3.14

OpenStudy (anonymous):

452.16

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

ok, so when you subtract 452.16 - 254.34, that should be the area of the black ring

OpenStudy (anonymous):

197.9 !! ty!

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

correct yw :)
