At a zoo, the lion pen has a ring-shaped sidewalk around it. The outer edge of the sidewalk is a circle with a radius of 12 m. The inner edge of the sidewalk is a circle with a radius of 8 m.

Write and simplify an expression for the exact area of the sidewalk.

Find the approximate area of the sidewalk. Use 3.14 to approximate π.

Answer:

The answer would be 251.2 for the side walk if the radius for the whole circle is 12 and the small circle's radius would be 8. Only for the answer with the 8 m and 12 m radius NOT the 11m and 9 m

The equation would be:

144 x 3.14 - 64 x 3.14 = 251.2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to find out what the whole circle is:

The whole circle is 452.16

Then, find the inner circle :

8 x 8 x 3.14  

200.96

Last, subtract the whole by the inner:

452.16 - 200.96 = 251.2

hope this helps!
