Respuesta :

Area of the circle = π * (35 yd)^2

Let A be the area of the sector subtended by a central angle measuring 80º. Then

A / (π * (35 yd)^2) = 80º / 360º  ==>  A = 2450π/9 yd^2 ≈ 854.78 yd^2

Subtract from A the area of the triangle, whose base has length 45 yd and with height 25 yd:

A - 1/2 * (45 yd) * (25 yd)  ≈ 292.28 yd^2

This is the area of the missing circular segment.

Then the area of the playground is equal to the area of the circle minus this area,

π * (35 yd)^2 - 292.28 yd^2 ≈ 3554 yd^2
