\n" ); document.write( "Area of inner (smaller) circle: \"pi%2Ar%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( "With width of shaded region being “w,” then radius of larger circle = r + w
\n" ); document.write( "Area of outer (larger) circle = \"pi%28r+%2B+w%29%5E2\", or \"pi%28r%5E2+%2B+2rw+%2B+w%5E2%29\", or \"pi%2Ar%5E2+%2B+2pi%2Arw+%2B+pi%2Aw%5E2\"
