@JoannaBlackwelder

OpenStudy (joannablackwelder):

What did you get?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what I did was use the equatiom

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are of sector/ pir^2= measure of arc/360

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and when I added everything in I got the answer 50.3=x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so after that I figured out the area of the triangle and It was 32.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So I subtracted 50.3-32 and got 18.3=area of shaded region

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but that's not one of my answer choices

OpenStudy (joannablackwelder):

That is what I get, but in a rounded form instead of exact.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah, so what is the equation asking???

OpenStudy (joannablackwelder):

For an exact form of your answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what does that mean, I thought I did do it exact?

OpenStudy (joannablackwelder):

\[\frac{ 90 }{ 360 }\times64π\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh so they want the equation I used

OpenStudy (joannablackwelder):

Yes, it is perfect. Just don't round. Leave it in terms of π

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh okay so, Would I have to diide 90 by 360

OpenStudy (joannablackwelder):

Right, or leave it in a fraction but simplified.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh okay, so my answer would be 64 pi=1/4

OpenStudy (joannablackwelder):

Close, area of sector = 1/4*64pi

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh, okay so after this is this my answer

OpenStudy (joannablackwelder):

Close. You still have to subtract the area of the triangle.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

which was 32.

OpenStudy (joannablackwelder):

Right.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so It would be 1/4*32pi

OpenStudy (joannablackwelder):

1/4*64pi simplifies to 16pi

OpenStudy (joannablackwelder):

64/4=16

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then what would you do after that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so wait the answer would be 16pi-32 because you still have to subtract the 32

OpenStudy (joannablackwelder):

Right. :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh gosh yes final thanks, when will you be on here till?

OpenStudy (joannablackwelder):

Um, I'm not sure. Why?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I was just saying I might need help again later and you seem to be the only one who can explain this too me!

OpenStudy (joannablackwelder):

Ok. Well, feel free to tag me and I'll help if I can. I also do private lessons if you need. Let me know. :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay thank you !
