Either the inner circle is irrelevant to the problem; or you have left something out of the statement of the problem.
A segment of a circle of radius 6 that is determined by a central angle of 312 degrees has an area that is 312/360 of the area of the whole circle.
1. The "arc" as a geometric object DOES NOT HAVE AREA.
The notion AREA is not determined/defined for "arc".
2. Mathematically, this formulation is totally dark and MAKES NO SENSE.
