Can you find the radius?
OpenStudy (christinestutes):
I am not sure - is it 4?
OpenStudy (christinestutes):
This is what I think r = 4 d= 16 are = 50.24 area of square = 64 Then subtract 5024 from 64 and answer is 13.76 square inches
OpenStudy (pawanyadav):
What is d?

OpenStudy (pawanyadav):
Diameter is double of radius.
It should be 8

ok thanks
OpenStudy (christinestutes):
I squared it
OpenStudy (pawanyadav):
But your answer is correct as diameter has no use in area.
OpenStudy (christinestutes):
I did pi r squared to get area of triangle - is that right?
OpenStudy (pawanyadav):
Yes but not triangle that is a circle

sorry that is what I meant - this is overwhelming switching between all of the figures. Then subtracted that area from area of square?
OpenStudy (pawanyadav):
Yes .you are right

Thank you so much for the clarification. I appreciate your help!
