hi there,
I assume that the triangular park
is right angled as the sides 6,8 and 10
match a 3,4,5, right angled triangle
Area of the above triangle = 1/2 (bxh)
=> 1/2 (4 x 3) = 6m^2
Area of circle = Pi x r^2
Area = 3.14 x 1^2
Area = 3.14m^2
Area of triangle - Area of circle
6m^2 - 3.14m^2
= 2.86m^2
Hope this helps:-)
