    Step-by-step explanation:

    Area wiped by the wiper blade = Area covered by the whole wiper mechanism - Area that is not being wiped.

    Where area of a sector of 125° ... Area = 1/2. r^2. theta ... but with theta in radians

    Area covered of the whole wiper mechanism;

    = 1/2 * 25^2 * (25pi/36) ... in which (25pi/36) is 125° in radians ...

    =217.014pi

    Area that is not being wiped;

    = 1/2 * (25 - 14) ^2 * (25pi/36)

    = 42.014pi

    Area wiped by the wiper blade

    217.014 - 42.014

    Area = 175 square inches
