First, the area of the semi-circle would be
(PI * r^2)/2=
(PI*7*7)/2=
(22/7) * (7*7)/2 =
22*7/2
OpenStudy (aaronandyson):
77

@wolf1728
OpenStudy (wolf1728):
We have to figure out the additional area (see graphic)

Area of 1/2 the square = 7 * 14
=98
Area of the semi-circle=77
So, the area of the red area (in the top half of the diagram) =
98-77 =
21
So, area of shaded area =
77 + 21 =98
OpenStudy (aaronandyson):
I Didn't get the last bit?
OpenStudy (wolf1728):
Okay I redrew the graphic
OpenStudy (wolf1728):
Just looking at the top half of the square, wee have to calculate those 2 red areas correct?

So you agree we have to calculate those 2 red areas in the upper half of the circle?
OpenStudy (aaronandyson):
I'm confused
Restart plx
OpenStudy (wolf1728):
I mean upper half of the SQUARE
OpenStudy (wolf1728):
Okay, right from the beginning
we calculated the area of the semi-circle which is 77 right?
OpenStudy (aaronandyson):
Yes

What remains is that we have to calculate the area of the 2 red sections in the NEW graphic.
OpenStudy (aaronandyson):
Yes
OpenStudy (wolf1728):
Okay the area of the entire area of the upper half of that square if 7 * 14 or 98 correct?
OpenStudy (aaronandyson):
ACDE?
Yes
OpenStudy (wolf1728):
Yes ACDE = 98
Now we calculate the area of the semi-circle which we know is 77

OpenStudy (aaronandyson):
Yes
OpenStudy (wolf1728):
So the area of the 2 red areas is 98 minus 77 = 21
Therefore the area of the semi-circle plus the 2 red areas = 77 + 21 = 98
OpenStudy (aaronandyson):
?
OpenStudy (wolf1728):
Okay looking at the original black and white graphic we have to calculate the gray area
OpenStudy (aaronandyson):
Oh
sure
now?

OpenStudy (wolf1728):
Okay the gray area in the upper half of the black and white graphoc equals the area of the 2 red areas in my recent graphic correct?
OpenStudy (aaronandyson):
I think
OpenStudy (wolf1728):
Yes my graphic is drawn from a different perspective from the black and white graphic but you can see that the areas are the same right?
OpenStudy (aaronandyson):
yES
OpenStudy (wolf1728):
So to get the area of those upper 2 red sections in my graphic, you get the area of the top half of the red square (7*14) =98 then subtract the area of the semi-circle 77 which equals 21

YES
OpenStudy (wolf1728):
So to solve the TOTAL area we get the 21 and add it to the semi-circle area (77) and we get 98
OpenStudy (aaronandyson):
Yes
OpenStudy (wolf1728):
and that's it!
OpenStudy (aaronandyson):
Can u summariaze it?

summarize*
OpenStudy (wolf1728):
okay maybe I should redraw the original graphic
OpenStudy (aaronandyson):
sure
OpenStudy (wolf1728):
Wow - finally

now?

I think I've got an EASY explanation.
The red areas in the bottom half equal the gray areas in the top half
OpenStudy (aaronandyson):
According to this book the shaded region i s98cm^2 :/
OpenStudy (aaronandyson):
is*
OpenStudy (wolf1728):
Which we already calculated right?
OpenStudy (aaronandyson):
No,The 98 we calculated is ACDE

Yes but that is ALSO the area of the semi-circle plus the 2 red areas.
OpenStudy (aaronandyson):
I just can't understand this problem :/
OpenStudy (wolf1728):
We need to calculate the gray area
The semi-circle area is 77
The red areas equal 21
We add 77 + 21 = 98
OpenStudy (aaronandyson):
What?
X_x
OpenStudy (wolf1728):
We proved (many lines ago) that the gray area of the upper half of the square equals the red area

es
OpenStudy (aaronandyson):
Yes*
OpenStudy (wolf1728):
The red area = grey area = 21
OpenStudy (aaronandyson):
U mean BED?
OpenStudy (wolf1728):
BED is the curved gray area and equals 21

OpenStudy (aaronandyson):
ACDE = 98
BED = 21
EFD = 77
What about ABE & BCD
OpenStudy (wolf1728):
We didn't have to calculate ABE or BCD but they each equal 10.5
OpenStudy (aaronandyson):
sO,WHAT NEXT?
OpenStudy (wolf1728):
We know the red areas = the grey areas in the upper half of the square
OpenStudy (aaronandyson):
k

Area of the upper half of the square = 7 * 14 = 98
Area of semi-circle = 77
Area of upper gray areas = 98-77 = 21

After 2 hrs(inclusive of ur 1 hr) I finally got This one.
