Hint : Find the area of unshaded region and subtract it from the area of square

anonymous · Answer

yea i figured out the area of the square which was 36 but i dont know how to figure out the shaded part

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

area of shaded region = (area of square) - (area of the quarter-circle)

square has side lengths of 6
the circle has a radius of 6

anonymous · Answer

so your area of the circle would be 36 pi and then subtract that from 6 and divide by 4?

i mean 36

ganeshie8 · Answer
