A dog is tethered to the corner of a ten-foot-by-ten-foot square pen by a leash that is 14 feet long. In how much area outside the pen can the dog roam?
-----------
The area of that circle is (pi)14^2
-----------
The area of the ten-foot square pen is 100 sq ft.
--------------------
The area of the part outside the square = (pi)14^2-100 = 515.75 sq ft.
