Solution

Part A: The area of the dark shaded region = S1,

where

The radius of the circle is 3 inches.

[tex]\begin{gathered} S_1=\frac{4}{5}\pi r^2 \\ =\frac{4}{5}\pi.3^2 \\ S_1=\frac{36}{5}\pi in^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Part B: The area of the light shaded region = S,

[tex]\begin{gathered} S=S_2-S_1 \\ S=5\times\frac{1}{2}r.rtan36 \\ S=\frac{45}{2}\sqrt{5-2\sqrt{5}} \\ S=\frac{45}{2}\sqrt{5-2\sqrt{5}}-\frac{36}{5}\pi in^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]
