A circle with a radius of 5 cm sits inside a 11 cm x 11 cm rectangle

Area of the shaded region = 42.46 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the square = s * s = 11 cm * 11 cm = 121 cm

Area of the circle = π * r² = π * (5 cm) ² = 78.54 cm

Area of the shaded region = 121 cm - 78.54 cm = 42.46 cm
