Answer:

7.74 yd²

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Area (shaded) = Area (square) - Area (circle)
  • Area (shaded) = 6 x 6 - 3.14 x 3 x 3
  • [ Note : radius of circle = 1/2 of the side of the square]
  • Area (shaded) = 36 - 28.26
  • Area (shaded) = 7.74 yd²

Answer:

7.74 yd²

Step-by-step explanation:

The shaded area can be calculated by subtracting the area of the circle from the area of the square.

Given:

  • side length of square = 6 yd
  • radius of circle = half of side length = 3 yd
  • π = 3.14

Area of the square = side length × side length

                               = 6 × 6

                               = 36 yd²

Area of the circle = πr²

                             = 3.14 × 3²

                             = 28.26 yd²

Shaded area = area of square - area of circle

                      = 36 - 28.26

                      = 7.74 yd²
