What is the best approximation for the area of the shaded region?

Use 3.14 to approximate pi.

168.56 inΒ²

696.08 inΒ²

740.04 inΒ²

1677.76 inΒ²
Circle inscribed inside a square with outside shaded, one side labeled 28 in.














Respuesta :

it is 168.56. i took the test. :)

Answer:

168.56 inΒ²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area will be found by subtracting the area of the circle from the area of the square.

The area of the square will be given by A = 28(28) = 784 inΒ².

The area of the circle will be given by A = 3.14(14Β²) = 3.14(196) = 615.44 inΒ².

The area of the shaded portion is given by

784-615.44 = 168.56 inΒ²
