Help with two Geometry questions? (questions inside) [will MEDAL & FAN]

Well find the area of the whole circle and multiply that by 3/4 because you only want 3/4 of the circle
do you know how to find the area of a circle?
A = Pi r^2 right
yep so what is the area of the circle?
Would the area of the circle be 50.27 ?
remember is says to leave your answer in terms of pi.
like said don't substitute 3.14 in for pi. So when it is pi*r^2 leave it as r^2*pi (just simplify r^2)
so do 4^2?
If so that'd be 16 then.
16pi
Now the shaded region takes up how much of the circle?
The shaded region takes up 3/4 of the circle. So the area of the shaded region is 3/4A where A is the circle's area. So substitute and get the answer. What is the answer?
If you don't know how I got 3/4 just ask.
lol I see how you got 3/4, I can look at the diagram and see that but the answer is
the answer would be 3/4*16pi or 12pi
sorry for not posting :(
the circle for problem 2 would look like a circle cut in half
if you don't know why ask me
so then you find the area of 1/2 of the circle. so you have that the radius is 1/2(14)=7 and the area of the whole circle is 7^2*pi and we need half of that
remember keep the pi. The answer should be in the form x*pi
