HELP!!! If you are throwing a dart at the circular target pictured below, and it is equally likely to hit any point on the target, what is the probability that the dart will hit the rectangle? Use 3.14 for pie and round your answer to the nearest tenth of a percent. http://www.thelearningodyssey.com/Assess/DPT/QIEImagesStorage/HSCT_/HSCT_GE13G_17B_stem2_1.jpg The radius of the circle is 10in. A) 12.1% B)12.5% C) 13.2% D)15.3%

Well first we can find the area of the circle.. \(A = \pi r^2\) Plug in the radius: \(A = (3.14)(10^2)\) Can you simplify that? @ardentpikachu

314?

Yes, now we find the area of the rectangle. \(A = lw\) Plug in the length and the width: \(A = (8)(6)\)

Can you multiply 8 * 6? @ardentpikachu
