And the sides of the large square are also radii of the quatre circle
Well let the side length of the small square be x
Then what would the side length of the big square be?
In terms of x
Correct
Now how would u calculate the area of the shaded region
Think about adding and subtracting areas of different shapes
Almost
Remember the radius of the circle is x√2
Not just x
Yep
Then u can work out the area of the large square and find the percentage
Yep
First to make the algebra easy i would factor out x²
Then divide the shaded area by the total area and multiply by 100
Yes
