Mathematics Question on Circles

A circle of radius 2 cm is cut out from a square piece of an aluminium sheet of side 6 cm. What is the area of the left over aluminium sheet? (Take π\pi= 3.14)

Answer

Area of square-shaped sheet = (Side)2(Side)^2
= (6)2(6)^2
= 36  cm236 \;cm^2
Area of circle = 3.14×2×23.14 \times 2 \times 2
= 12.56  cm212.56 \;cm^2
Remaining area of sheet = 3612.5636 - 12.56
= 23.4423.44 cm2cm^2
