This is the red ths of a 24ft-radius circle plus
of a 4ft-radius circle.
The area of a full circle is A = pr².
The area of the big red circle = pr².
= p·r² = ·(3.14)·(24)².
The area of the small green circle = pr².
= p·r² = ·(3.14)·(4)².
Total area = ·(3.14)·(24)² + ·(3.14)·(4)².
Total area = 1356.48 + 12.56 = 1369.04 square feet.
