Find the area and perimeter of the shaded region.
Answer:
Area: [tex]50\pi -100[/tex]
Perimeter: 20[tex]\pi[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
If we take half of one of these "pedals" we can see that it is simply 1/4 of a circle with radius 5, subtracted by a triangle. Let's calculate this half-pedal.
[tex]1/4(25 \pi) - 1/2(5* 5)[/tex]
That means 4 pedals is equal to:
[tex]8(1/4(25\pi) - 1/2 (25))[/tex]
[tex]50\pi - 100[/tex]
So.. The area of the shaded region is [tex]50\pi -100[/tex]
Perimeter is even simpler. the half-pedal is just 1/4 of the circumference of the circle. The circumference is just [tex]10\pi[/tex], which means our half pedal is:
[tex]1/4(10\pi )[/tex]
Multiplying by 8, our perimeter is just 20[tex]\pi[/tex].
