I have a 10ft in diameter oval pool
If I build a 3 ft walkway around it what is the square footage of the walkway?
:
The overall diameter, including the walkway, will be 16 ft, then
overall radius = 8 ft, (pool radius = 5 ft)
:
Walkway area = overall area - pool area
ww.a = %28pi%2A8%5E2%29 - %28pi%2A5%5E2%29
ww.a = 122.522 sq/ft
