The figure below shows 2 quarter circles and a rectangle. The radius of the big quarter circle is 8 cm. The radius of the small quarter circle is 4 cm. Find the difference in area between the two shaded parts X and Y. Use the calculator value of pi and give your answer correct to 1 decimal place.
1/4 x ∏ x 8 x 8 = 16 pi
1/4 x ∏ x 4 x 4 = 4 pi
16 pi - 4 pi = 12 pi B + X
8 x 4 = 32 B + Y
12 pi - 32 = 5.7 cm2
It was 5.7 cm2.
Please calculate ?? as I do not have a proper calculator.
Thought it should be
