Answer:

  • 9.42 yd²
  • 3.57 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

The area of circle with radius of 2 yd (the length of the rope) is:

  • A = π*r² = 3.14*2² = 12.56 yd²

Since 1/4 of the circle is occupied by the shed, the area of the grass is:

  • 12.56*3/4 = 9.42 yd²

Part B

Let the area be 30 yd², finding the r as per above formula:

  • 3/4*3.14*r² = 30
  • r² = 30*4/3*3.14
  • r² = 12.74
  • r = √12.74
  • r = 3.57 yd
