Question

given circles v and w below. find the area of the shaded region. round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary.

Explanation:

Step1: Determine radii of circles

Radius of W: 6/2 = 3; Radius of V: 3 + 3 = 6

Step2: Calculate areas of circles

Area of V: $\pi \times 6^2 = 36\pi$; Area of W: $\pi \times 3^2 = 9\pi$

Step3: Find shaded area

Shaded area = $36\pi - 9\pi = 27\pi \approx 84.8$

Answer:

84.8
