Question

help please

Answer 1

The area of one of the smaller circles is \[8\pi\] in^2 Find the area of the shaded region.

Answer 2

is there an answer choice

Answer 3

A.\[\pi .inches^{2}\]
B.\[4\pi. inches ^{2}\]
C.\[8\pi. inches ^{2}\]
D.\[16\pi. inches ^{2}\]

Answer 4

area of a circle is pi r^2 where r is the radius
8pi = pi^r^2 gives r^2 = 8 then r = 2rt2
the radius of the big circle is twice the radius of the small circle
2 times 2rt 3 - 4rt2
area of the big circle = pi (4rt2)^2 = 32 pi
area of shaded - area of big circle minus area of 2 small circles
32pi -2 *8pi = 16 pi
i got D
