OpenStudy (anonymous):

let arc AB=x then circumference/4= x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (amistre64):

the picture is asking to find the area of the shaded portion; even tho the post alludes to some arc length ...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the circumference of the circle is 2*pie*r = 2*3.14*2 = 12.56 arc AB = 12.56/4 = 3.14
