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
